Educators want to help their students learn, and the Landmark School Outreach

Program can help them do so more effectively. 

Landmark School Outreach Program speaks directly to what research shows

educators need—appropriate learner-centered pedagogy; systematic, skills-

based content materials; models for adapting instruction to learner needs; and

clear explanations of the relationship between research and practice. 

Teachers at Landmark School excel at developing instructional strategies that

allow students with language-based learning disabilities to learn successfully.

Outreach’s programs and publications are created by Landmark’s faculty who

are fully conversant with the challenges of applying research to daily practice. 

The Landmark School Outreach Program provides a conduit for Landmark

School’s best practices to be shared with educators who work in other

schools or settings. 

Participants in our programs tell us they appreciate what we offer—the  

concise explanations of their students’ diverse needs, immediately useful

strategies and materials to meet those needs, and easy-to-implement

techniques for differentiating instruction.  Landmark School Outreach

Program offers multiple venues through which educators can address

their professional development needs.
