Who We Serve
At Currey Ingram Academy, we understand that students learn differently so we must teach differently. Our teachers use evidence-based instructional approaches and present material through an individualized, structured and multisensory approach (visual, auditory, and kinesthetic) to best meet the instructional and learning needs of our students. Currey Ingram Academy accepts students compatible with the mission of the school; however, within the residential program, students will be accepted using additional criteria that aligns with a 24/7 environment.
Our Upper School program serves students in 9th through 12th grades with average to superior intelligence with learning differences, particularly in reading (dyslexia), writing (dysgraphia), math (dyscalculia), memory (long-term and working), processing speed, ADHD, executive functioning challenges or other learning differences that prevent academically capable students from achieving success in a traditional educational setting. -

Students Our Mission Doesn't Serve
Although we serve a wide range of students with learning differences, there are student profiles that fall outside of our mission and scope of service. These include students who are diagnosed by a professional with:- An intellectual disability.
- Moderate-to-severe Autism Spectrum Disorders
- ASD that results in significant social communication impairments and behavioral impairments.
- Moderate-to-severe emotional problems
- A history of school-related behavioral or conduct challenges, including:
- Oppositional Defiant Disorder
- Conduct Disorder
- Disruptive Mood Dysregulation Disorder
**Although a student may not have a diagnosed learning difference, on occasion, a student is accepted because there is a need for a smaller, more personalized learning environment. These students typically flourish in our environment, as well. -
