赖肯计划

赖肯计划 is a New York State-approved Private, 中学, Special Education Program for students who demonstrate the cognitive capacity to master a rigorous college preparatory program but whose academic performance is significantly hampered by a documented disability that interferes with the capacity to store, process or produce information. These disabilities include but are not limited to, 阅读, 写作, or mathematics disorders, receptive or expressive language impairments, and attention deficit disorder.

赖肯计划's mission is to challenge and support learning disabled students so that they achieve academically at their intellectual level. The Program's goal is to turn them into effective life-long learners who will go on to college.
