Educational therapy through the
Everett Christian School Discovery is a
supplementary program established to help students
with learning difficulties who have experienced
frustration and/or failure in the classroom.
The
program accredited by the National Institute of
Learning Disabilities (N.I.L.D.), uses intervention
techniques in a one-to-one educational setting, for
two 80-minute sessions weekly.
The focus of the
intense individual sessions is on continual
stimulation and development of the deficit areas of
perception, basic skills, and problem solving (cognition).
