Learning Services
Wasatch Academy is committed to enhancing and supporting each student’s unique learning style. Our goal is to develop students who own their learning and advocate for themselves in the classroom and in life.
To support student learning, where accommodations are needed, we develop individualized in-class learning strategies that our faculty deliver through a highly differentiated curriculum. Students remain integrated with their peers in all classes, a fully inclusive model. Our program is supportive of students with identified learning differences such as dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, ADHD, and executive function deficits — as well as twice-exceptional students.
Individual Instruction

Learning Differences Services
Students with learning differences may need additional support to develop the study skills and habits necessary to achieve the most favorable academic outcomes.
Learning Services offers assistance in one-to-one coaching to support the development of executive function skills such as cognitive flexibility, goal setting, organizing materials and ideas, prioritizing, self-monitoring, and self-checking with specialized support for students with identified learning differences – dyslexia, dyscalculia, dysgraphia and processing deficits.
About 30% of our students are enrolled in the Learning Services program. These students meet one-to-one with their learning coach during a regularly scheduled class period. The coach offers assistance developing skills, strategies, and independence to reach new heights and succeed in future endeavors.
