Welcome!

Welcome to Bridgeway Academy's blog. This is a place for anyone interested in learning disabilities and education. We'll focus on the ways we can teach a child with learning disabilities so that they can learn. You'll hear from many voices here, and we would welcome your thoughts, your ideas and your solutions to making the learning journey easier for students with LDs.

We're really lucky to have to have our own "in house" expertise, and you'll hear from them here. Lucinda Low, our Founder and Executive Director, has 27 years of experience running this school and working with students with learning disabilities. I don't think I've ever met someone with so much passion for what she does.

Angela Rudderham is our Director of Behaviour and Social Skills. She has been with us since 2007, and has a wonderful way of helping our kids sort out how their behaviour decisions are related to their learning disabilities, and how to change their behaviour in the future.

Lisa Saunders is our Director of Programs, and her deep understanding of how our students learn allows us to individualize programs to help them reach their full potential.

And Lynne Fielder is the Principal at our Dartmouth location. She has a passion for education and the strategies that educators can use in the classroom to help all students with LDs.

And I'm Rhonda Brown. I'm responsible for marketing and communications at Bridgeway, but I'm also the parent of three child, one who has been diagnosed with ADHD. On this blog, you can think of me as the conversation starter. I'll be posting writings from our experts and others, to enlighten and inform. Share your thoughts, and send along your ideas and questions to me anytime at rhonda.brown@bridgeway-academy.com.

Let the learning begin!
