Learning Support

Our Learning Consultant team includes three specialists: a full-time learning consultant; a speech and language pathologist; and an occupational therapist. These three specialists assist students who have diagnosed learning differences and support teachers with avenues for differentiation and scaffolding. 

Learning Consultant

The learning consultant provides one-on-one and small group support for kindergarten through 8th grade students with various learning needs, and supports teachers in implementing modifications and accommodations within the classroom. 

Speech and Language Pathologist

The speech/language pathologist provides one-on-one and small group therapy for PK-8th grade in the areas of: articulation/speech, expressive and receptive language, and pragmatic/social language. The SLP is a resource for classroom teachers in all areas of speech/language development. Speech/articulation and language screenings are administered at the start of the school year for new PK-2nd grade students.

Occupational Therapist

The occupational therapist’s role at TSMSOC is to support student participation in school routines while promoting independence. The occupational therapist provides services in the classroom, as well as one-on-one and group therapy for PK-8th grade in the areas of: fine motor, sensory, emotional regulation, executive functioning, gross motor, and handwriting. Fine motor screenings are completed for each new PK-3rd grade student.
