Empowering Students Who Have Mild-to-Moderate Learning Differences
As a parent of a child with a learning difference, you’ve experienced their frustrations alongside them. You’ve felt their discouragement as they’ve struggled with schoolwork and traditional classroom environments. You’ve also come to recognize the value of a Christ-centered education that reminds them that God does not make mistakes. Your child learns the way they learn because that is how God perfectly designed their mind to work.
At Wesleyan Christian Academy’s Enrichment Center, we serve families of children in grades 2 through 12 who have been diagnosed with ADD/ADHD, auditory processing disorder, central processing disorder, dyscalculia, dysgraphia, and dyslexia. At the same time, we work hard to build strong, successful, independent learners rooted in God’s Word who can continue their education at the university level.
Teaching That’s Fully Integrated & Immersive
The Enrichment Center is fully integrated into Wesleyan Christian Academy. This means your child will learn core subjects in small-group enrichment classrooms while they participate in electives, art, music, athletics, and chapel within the academy and alongside the larger student body. Ultimately, our goal is to teach students how they learn so they can transition back into the traditional classroom and advocate for their own learning needs.
| Program Hours | Average Class Size | |
|---|---|---|
| Grades 2-4 | 8 a.m. – 2:30 p.m. | 4-6 students |
| Grades 5-8 | 8 a.m. – 3 p.m. | 6-8 students |
| Grades 9-12 | 8 a.m. – 3:15 p.m. | 8-10 students |
Making All the Difference for Students With Learning Differences
If you desire to have your child actively involved in a college-preparatory Christian school but, because of their unique learning differences, have been unable to keep them in a traditional classroom setting, our Enrichment Center is for you.
Academic Support in ALL Subject Areas
Wesleyan Christian Academy takes a tiered approach to academic support. We offer three levels of assistance based on your child’s needs.
The first level provides in-class accommodations, such as preferential seating in a traditional classroom or additional time on tests.
The second level offers resource classes in math and reading/English. These smaller classes give students additional support in those subjects.
The third and most in-depth level of support comes into play in our Enrichment Center. The Enrichment Center covers all core subject areas, including math, science, English/literature, Bible, and Spanish. Your child will benefit from an individualized education plan with specialized reading and math support. Our Enrichment Center utilizes educational programs like the Orton-Gillingham teaching approach to support our students. Your student will also have the opportunity to showcase their knowledge of information in nontraditional assignments that speak better to their specific learning disabilities.
Positive Challenges
The Enrichment Center offers intensive services when needed while maintaining the same academic standards as the rest of the academy. We’ll work hard to transition your child out of the Enrichment Center and into a traditional classroom when they are ready. We’ll also help prepare them for college and beyond.
Nurturing Community
Certified learning disabilities teachers, other school staff, and peers offer hope and affirmation, encouraging each student to succeed in and out of the classroom. This ensures your child feels seen, heard, and understood.
Faith-First Focus
Your child will grow in confidence and faith surrounded by people who love the Lord. Each day, they’ll learn the same Christian values you teach at home and participate in Bible class and weekly chapel.

Providing Hope & Enriching Futures With College Preparation
Whether your child has ADD/ADHD or dyslexia, a processing disorder, or another mild-to-moderate learning difference, our Enrichment Center will meet them where they are. We’ll also challenge them and provide a comprehensive college-prep education. They’ll work on building executive functioning skills, self-advocacy tools, and organizational skills, which will serve them well throughout university studies and life.
