Why Enrichment? Often, students with learning differences may experience feelings of isolation and solitude due to their unique challenges. At Rocky Mountain Academic Therapy, we firmly believe in fostering a sense of community among these students to celebrate their neurodiversity. Through our academic and extracurricular enrichment classes, we create opportunities for short, engaging sessions aimed at promoting interaction and camaraderie in a relaxed and enjoyable setting.
Students must be enrolled through Rocky Mountain Academic Therapy. No drop ins.
