Crossroads for Educational Services, Inc

As the CEO of Crossroads Educational Services, I personally guarantee the highest quality in our evaluations, consultations, advocacy, professional development as well as academic therapy. Everything we do incorporates our incredible passion for the special needs student – especially the dyslexic. It is this passion that pushes us toward making sure that every child who is within a K-12 environment receives the help that they need. Our approach to literacy training has eliminated children’s anxiety toward reading and enabled them to excel in all subject areas of academia.

Our testing battery is specific to a student’s reading disorder especially dyslexia. A full analysis , consultation and report is part of every evaluation.

Crossroads offer written language comprehension programs for those who struggle with comprehension and written language skill deficits.

Professional Workshops:

Crossroads offer professional workshops for teachers, administrators and parents. These workshops have the central theme of dyslexia. The following questions are answered during our workshops: How does a child qualify as a dyslexic? How is a child remediated with dyslexia? How does a district provide appropriate programming for dyslexic children within a public school? How do I, a parent, know that my child has the right program?

Crossroads partners with schools and districts to establish an effective learning environment under the Response to Intervention framework. This framework enhances research-validates common core Tier 1 instruction and effective Tier 2 and 3 interventions while developing the 5 core components of reading.
