Mission
The Siena School offers a rich educational program for bright, college-bound students who are challenged by language-based learning differences, such as dyslexia. Our program is designed for students with mild to moderate needs who experience a discrepancy between their intellectual abilities and academic achievement in one or more areas such as reading, writing, oral expression or math.
Students
In its first year, Siena enrolls approximately 30 students and is seeking to maintain an equal ratio of boys and girls. Siena students fit the following profile:
- Are bright, college-bound students;
- Have mild to moderate language-based learning needs;
- Are of average to above-average abilities; and
- Are emotionally healthy and behaviorally appropriate.
