Atlanta GA, United States Atlanta Speech School Full time

The Atlanta Speech School

School Nurse/After School and Extended Day (part-time)

Monday – Friday; 3:00pm – 6:00pm

Start Date: August 2024

The Atlanta Speech School provides an unmatched opportunity to learn from both peers and experts in the field, and to contribute to the School’s growing body of knowledge. Beyond seeking proficiency, we work to construct a Deep Reading Brain for each child at the School and, through our Rollins Center for Language & Literacy, every child beyond the school. Deep reading requires learning to make connections between what we read to what we think, feel, and do. Through deep reading, children develop empathy, hone critical thinking, and go on to make the greatest possible difference in the lives of others.

  • We believe in connection over compliance. Rather than silencing children, we teach them to listen - and to think, to question, and to solve.
  • Our staff works together to know and serve each child from within an intentional learning ecosystem that is as joyful as it is rigorous.
  • Our practices are grounded in structured literacy and built on the sciences of healthy brain development, language acquisition, and the construction of the Deep Reading Brain. This work is intentionally centered around critical thinking, empathy, problem solving and the development of executive functions.

We are committed to providing a community through which all our students, families, and staff show up safely as themselves and for each other. As stewards of this environment, it is our responsibility to ensure safety extends to every person, inclusive of all races /ethnicities, religions, genders, family structures, sexual orientations, and any other aspect of their identity.

The School has never turned away a child in need of services based on their family’s financial circumstances.
