Two children, wearing assistive hearing technology, in the Mimosa Garden of the Atlanta Speech School.

The Atlanta Speech School's four schools share a common mission: to bring deep reading to each and every child so they can find their voice to determine their own future and make the greatest difference in the lives of others.

We follow the Science of Reading to meet this mission, with the understanding that only by constructing deep reading brains can we become who we are meant to be, and make the most difference in the lives of others.

Each of our four schools has its own admissions process, to best meet the needs of each family. Select the Hamm Center Preschool for children who are deaf or hard of hearing, Kenan Preschool for typically developing children, Stepping Stones Preschool for children with diagnosed speech or language delays or the Wardlaw School for elementary-aged children with dyslexia.
