Dyslexia Tidbit
Frequently Asked Questions
What is dyslexia?
Dyslexia is a language-based learning disability. Dyslexia refers to a cluster of symptoms, that results in people having difficulties with specific language skills, particularly reading. Students with dyslexia often experience difficulties with both oral and written other language skills, such as writing, and pronouncing words and writing. Dyslexia affects individuals throughout their lives; however, its impact can change at different stages in a person’s life. It is referred to as a learning disability because dyslexia can make it very difficult for a student to succeed without phonics-based reading instruction that is unavailable in most public schools. In its more severe forms, a student with dyslexia may qualify for special education with specially designed instruction, and as appropriate, accommodations.

A Note from the Assistant Principal
Mrs. Henderson
We have taken our previous six Dragon Character Pillars and condensed them into three Pillars that focus on specific characteristics that will support our students each day at Lakes and Bridges Charter School.
Our new and condensed Dragon Character Pillars are:
- Respect
- Responsibility
- Perseverance
The students say the Dragon Character Expectations each day during morning announcements:
Respect yourself, others, and our school. Be Responsible for yourself, your actions, and the learning environment. Have a growth mindset and practice Perseverance.
