Overview
Our Mission is to provide individualized, dynamic education for dyslexic, academically gifted, and twice-exceptional (both dyslexic and gifted) students.
A full psychological-educational evaluation, which includes the WISC V evaluation and at least one behavioral assessment, is required.
Applicants we are not qualified to serve: Emotional and/or behavioral disorders, Autism Spectrum Disorder, Nonverbal Learning Disability, Intellectual disabilities, and Communication disorders requiring direct speech and language services.
At St. Columba, a Catholic, independent school for children in grades pre k - 8, each student is a valued and integral part of a joyful and inspiring campus: an enclave where he can find pitch-perfect harmony in serving others while walking, with utter confidence, alongside the beam of light God intends for him to discover, explore, and, ultimately, pursue.
An ever-inclusive community in the spirit of Saint Francis, we welcome and respect students of all faiths, races, nationalities, and circumstances.
