Arrowsmith Program

RiverTree offers students the chance to participate in a part-time version of The Arrowsmith Program. Students who participate in the program go through an intensive assessment, then visit the Arrowsmith classroom at least one time each school day to do cognitive strengthening exercises. There is a fee above and beyond regular school tuition to participate. To learn more about the program, visit The Arrowsmith Program website. ( https://arrowsmithschool.org/the-arrowsmith-program/ )

What is the Arrowsmith Program?

In summary, the Arrowsmith Program is a suite of cognitive programs designed to address a series of cognitive functions underlying a range of specific learning difficulties. The programs target several areas of cognitive functioning involved in learning. Each cognitive program has a series of intensive and graduated tasks designed to address a specific area of cognitive functioning. The goal of the Arrowsmith Program is to identify and strengthen a series of weak cognitive areas that affect learning, and each student works on cognitive programs that are individually designed for their areas of learning difficulty. Upon completion of the program, the student’s increased learning capacities support efficient and effective self-directed learning.

The Arrowsmith Program housed inside of RiverTree School is only available to enrolled RiverTree students. Spaces are limited and enrollment in the school does not guarantee enrollment in The Arrowsmith Program.
