From Our Director
It is with pleasure that we invite you to learn more about the unique educational programs offered at The Center for Learning Unlimited.
Founded in 1985, The Center is a small, highly specialized day school that serves both publicly and privately sponsored students in grades 3-12 from Los Angeles South Bay communities. Students at all grade levels participate in an enriched California state curriculum, adapted to meet their learning style needs. We are a best match for bright students identified as Asperger's Syndrome (ASD), Bipolar Disorder or PPD/PPD-NOS (Pervasive Developmental Disorder/-Not Otherwise Specified).
Students typically come to us struggling with educational and/or mental health issues, often associated with learning differences. Much more than simply a way station or stepping stone, The Center offers robust, targeted interventions during critical periods in development, to positively impact learning, growth and adjustment. Most students spend 2 to 2 ½ years in the care of our team and then are transitioned to their home school to continue their education.
The Center's interdisciplinary collaboration brings together educators, physicians, psychologists, speech and language specialists and other experienced professionals in the service of our students and their families. To ensure agile, adaptable interventions, members of our team remain in close contact and provide further continuity through weekly and monthly team meetings. A full range of family support services that link home and school interventions are also integral to The Center's programs.
In addition to our full-day educational services, The Center offers partial day, after school and summer school programs, Relationship Activity Program (RAP), small group and individual tutoring. Currently, our programs serve third grade through high school students. Individualized SAT prep and online AP courses are also available.
We welcome your inquiries and would be pleased to arrange a tour of our campus. More information is also available on our web site: www.cflu.org.
Warm regards,
Virginia Erxleben Mathews, Ed.D., B.C.E.T.
