 Mission
Provident Charter School is designed for children with dyslexia and other language-based learning differences to access their potential by providing a high quality, well-rounded education that is delivered through multi-sensory instructional methods and individual learning plans.Â
They serve 211 students, from 32 different school districts, in grades 2-6. Students enter our school with significant deficits in Reading and Math. The average student enrolls with reading scores that are 1 year behind grade level in Reading and 1.2 years behind grade level in math. The students who have been with Provident for greater than 1 year have improved, on average, 2.87 grade levels in Math, and 2 grade levels in Reading. Their students move into high school prepared to succeed and confident in their own abilities.
