Academic Services
Learning Lab
“A School for the Whole Family,” is a mission of Dallas Christian. We strive to not only challenge our students academically but also provide accommodations to those who need extra support. Learning Lab is a program that provides the extra support in a positive environment. The resources provided in Learning Lab range from Language Therapy for dyslexia and reading difficulties in the Lower School to testing support and/or an elective class in Middle School and High School. The appropriate program is determined based on the child’s learning differences.
Requirements: Services at any level require documentation of a diagnosed learning difference and/or other health impairment. When pursuing an initial diagnosis in the area of a language learning difference such as dyslexia, testing through Scottish-Rite or a certified diagnostician is recommended.
Shared Services: Dallas Christian students, qualifying, can benefit from our shared-services agreement with Mesquite ISD. The MISD Student Services Center provides speech/language screening and diagnostic testing for students who meet referral criteria. Students whose testing indicates a learning difference may receive tutoring or speech therapy through MISD.
