Rawson Saunders is an Extraordinary Place
Rawson Saunders is where dyslexic learners thrive. As an academically excellent, fully accredited independent school for students with dyslexia, Rawson Saunders is the only school in central Texas of its kind, and one of just a handful in the country. We are internationally recognized as a leader in innovative, multisensory teaching methods tailored specifically to the way students with dyslexia learn.
Experts in Dyslexia:
- Our curriculum is guided by science to engage all pathways of learning—visual, auditory, tactile, and kinesthetic—and enhance receptiveness, working memory, and retention. Every subject incorporates multi-sensory instruction, including our renowned, fully integrated structured literacy program for reading remediation.
- The Rawson Saunders Institute sets our school apart by incorporating expert, evidence-based teacher training for all of our Academic Language Therapists (ALTs) and for interventionists all over the country. Rawson Saunders' ALTs are expertly prepared to provide the highest level of intervention possible for students with dyslexia.
Individualized Instruction and Support:
- Each student's schedule is crafted specifically to their learning level and pace, allowing every student to have a schedule that perfectly fits their needs.
- Student-to-teacher ratios are low, creating maximum interaction and instruction. With over 25 Academic Language Therapists, each ALT class has 2 students to 1 teacher. In math, there are 4 students to 1 teacher, and in all other classes, it is 8 students to 1 teacher.
- Rawson Saunders is fully departmentalized, meaning teachers only teach the subjects they are experts in.
- Students change classrooms and teachers throughout the day, allowing students to move their bodies and minds.
A Place Where Students Belong
For many families, Rawson Saunders is the first place where their child truly feels known, challenged, supported, and believed in. We don’t just accommodate dyslexia—we celebrate it. Our students are creative, curious, capable learners who deserve to be seen, supported, and set up to succeed.
If your child learns differently, they deserve a school that teaches differently.
They deserve Rawson Saunders.
