The Winston School of Short Hills is a coed, 1st-8th grade, independent school serving children with language-based learning differences. Our students have the potential to meet with academic success but have been largely unsuccessful due to such challenges as dyslexia, dysgraphia, ADHD, low processing speed, central auditory processing disorder, and poor organizational and executive functioning skills. Our reading programs are Orton-Gillingham-based, and we believe in a multi-modality approach to teaching in every discipline and grade level. Our students move on to mainstream public, independent, boarding, and parochial schools. Now is its 42nd year, The Winston School is fully accredited through the New Jersey Association of Independent Schools and the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools and is a member of the National Association of Independent Schools. Applicants are invited to learn more about The Winston School of Short Hills by going to the school's website at: www.winstonschool.org. Interested applicants should send a cover letter and resume to the attention of Josephine Diemond, Head of School, at administration@winstonschool.org.
