The quality of the Hamlin Robinson School
program lies in the heart of its excellent classroom teachers,
specialists, and exceptionally dedicated administrative and
support staff. These professionals represent the cream of
the crop. All lower school classroom teachers and Middle School
reading and language arts teachers are required to have advanced
training in the Slingerland Approach.
Faculty professional development programs
are strongly centered in exploration of all avenues of education
for language learning disabled students. Teachers find at
the school a wealth of positive role models and unity of purpose
that allows for a rewarding professional experience.
A balance of experienced, mid-level and
beginning staff provides an exciting and forward-moving sense
of purpose. Research tells us that the most important component
of an effective reading program is the quality of the teacher
training and support. Teachers and students will find that
a core component of the Hamlin Robinson School experience.
My hope is that students at HRS would
come to value and treasure their unique gifts, while at the
same time strengthen their academic skills in language arts
and math. HRS teacher
I look forward to students leaving
HRS empowered and confident, employing the strategies we teach
to integrate themselves into mainstream education. HRS
