Support NEALS by becoming a member!
In April of 1999, a small group of learning specialists gathered at Hotchkiss School to share ideas and to support each other in our efforts to provide academic support for students with learning differences in independent schools. NEALS has grown steadily over the last six years. Learning specialists from over fifty independent schools have attended meetings to learn about innovation in teaching, neurocognitive research, and program design. This last April many specialists attended a meeting at Landmark School where Dr. Charley Haynes presented members with a program about the research conducted on Dyslexic and Non-dyslexic brains. After lunch, attendees split into three groups to hear the latest information about Special Education Law and Independent Schools, Social Communication, Self-Advocacy, Pragmatics and Impulsiveness in the Dorms and What’s New in Assessment and Evaluation.
It is exciting to watch NEALS grow to 83 members and become a non-profit organization. Along with the growth of membership, the costs associated with hosting our meetings grow also. We hope you will join NEALS. Professionals in good standing, employed by independent schools, are encouraged to join the association. Consulting professionals (educational consultants, psychologists) wishing to be considered for membership may be nominated by a current NEALS member.
If you have any questions about NEALS membership, please contact a member of NEALS’s Executive Board.
