  • Social & Emotional Support

    Four dedicated counselors serve the Preschool, Primary, and Secondary Schools. Each holds a masters degree and has extensive experience in working with children. These dedicated professionals are there to support students and families with social, emotional and academic needs. They also give support to students as they transition from childhood into adolescence in partnership with the Nursing team staff who assist with the teaching of Human Development.
  • Learning Support

    Our Learning Support team is committed to helping all students thrive, including those with diverse learning needs and neurodiverse profiles. A team of three Learning Support Specialists collaborates with students to develop strategies that foster success both inside and outside the classroom.

    Our Literacy Specialist focuses on supporting students in the lower Primary grades, while two Learning Support Specialists work with students in grades Kindergarten and above. They partner with teachers, counselors, and the leadership team to create inclusive learning environments, implement individualized strategies, and provide the necessary support for students with learning differences or those who need additional assistance.
  • Sensory Integration & Self-reg

    Our Primary Head of School is a trained Instructional Coach who supports teachers in the implementation of sensory-friendly classrooms, ongoing SEL training, and the practice of self-reg. You'll see students of all ages using a wide variety of desks, seating, fidget gadgets, and even headphones to individualize their classroom experience.

    Self-reg is designed as "a pathway to enhancing resilience, motivation, learning, & well-being." Using the 5 step method developed by Stewart Shanker and the Mehrit Center, Magellan faculty and staff learn how to read, reframe, and respond to behavior, strong emotions, dysregulation, and much more.
