These programs share a common mission: to help each person develop their full potential through language and literacy. Each day, extraordinarily dedicated and talented individuals make significant differences in the lives of the children and adults they serve, helping them discover their voice, and the power of that voice, for a lifetime. We do this through the construction of the deep reading brain. For that purpose, the programs of the School work independently and collaboratively to ensure the best outcome for each person served. As a core part of its mission, the School has never denied access to a student in need of our services because of a family's socioeconomic circumstances. The School effects transformative change in the lives of children and adults through research-based practices, innovation, advocacy, and partnerships with other organizations so that each child at the Atlanta Speech School and every child served - in Georgia and beyond - can acquire the language and literacy abilities essential for deciding their own future and going on to make the greatest possible difference in the lives of others.As the nation's most comprehensive center for language and literacy, the four schools on campus serve approximately 390 preschoolers and elementary-age children annually. These schools are the Katherine Hamm Center (a listening, spoken language, literacy program for children ages birth to six who are deaf or hard of hearing and their families); the Wardlaw School (elementary school for children with dyslexia); Stepping Stones (literacy-foundation preschool for young children with significant speech and/or language delays); and the Anne & Jim Kenan Preschool (a language and literacy focused early childhood education). 7915843 222492 Through the Rollins Center for Language & Literacy ("Rollins Center"), the Speech School acts as the educational equivalent of a teaching hospital. The Rollins Center takes professional development to the field, allowing the School's mission to reach beyond the campus. With a specific vision of literacy and justice for all, the Rollins Center carries the School's 85+ years of expertise through research-based practices along the continuum from prenatal through fifth grade. This work is made available for all child-facing adults: educators, college students, caregivers, health care professionals and communities across Georgia and beyond. Collaborating with an advisory council of thirteen of the nation's foremost experts on child development and literacy, the Rollins Center synthesizes the science of reading and integrates on campus with all School programs to develop and deliver onsite teacher training and coaching, in addition to providing professional development to schools within and outside the region and offering free online training through our Cox Campus learning platform and virtual community of practice. The Rollins Center partners with public and private organizations, including the Georgia Department of Education, to reach more than 300,000 members on Cox Campus to deliver, for free, proven language and literacy strategies and to improve effectiveness of service delivery across sectors to equitably transform young lives. One example of the Rollins Center's work that illustrates its role at the beginning of the literacy continuum is Talk With Me Baby (TWMB). Since 2017, the Rollins Center has worked with Grady Hospital to change the standard of care to include ensuring every infant leaves the hospital with an adult prepared to deliver language nutrition. More than 7,000 babies have received the benefits of TWMB, the hospital-wide ecosystem that prioritizes families' relationships with children and applying the science of healthy brain development and language acquisition. In an independent study, the Brazelton Touchpoints Center, which operates under the shared umbrella of Harvard Medical School and Boston Children's graded an "A" in design, implementation and outcomes for caregivers and children and strongly recommended its replication. 1474846 68167 882141 Through the clinic, the School provides diagnostic, therapeutic and remediation services to both children and adults along the reading brain continuum. These services include Speech-Language (evaluation and therapy for children and adults); Occupational Therapy (pediatric therapy to address sensory integration, handwriting, or fine/gross motor difficulties); and the Learning Lab (specialized individual or small group academic intervention for children struggling academically). In all cases, services are available through telepractice. 26432283 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 61 0 1 330 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 45 44 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 GA X Daniela Olaye 4042335332 3160 Northside Parkway NW Atlanta GA 30327 Carrie Lanier Chair 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Katie Michaels Post Vice Chair 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Kathryn Bridges Miller Secretary 1.00 X X 0 0 0 William H Linginfelter Treasurer 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Antonin Aeck Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Virginia N Almand Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Jay Bailey Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Jen Bennecke Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Kenzie Biggins Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Ali Blaisdell Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 David Bowlin Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Christine Brodnan Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Stockton Croft Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Molly Eskew Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Jessica Freeman Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Jasmyne Frowner Wardlaw Reading Teacher 40.00 X 80719 0 14673 Andrea Hershatter Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Michael Hertz Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Liza Jancik Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Hardman Knox Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Billy Levine Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Lee Loughran Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Chaundra Luckett Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Rhonda L Matheison Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 John Mellott Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Eileen Millard Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Anthony Montag Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Chris Moses Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Dr Ashleigh Murriel Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Brooke Perez Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Kama Bethel Pierce Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Ursula Reynolds Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Russ Richards Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Nancy Brumley Robitaille Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 David Roemer Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Lyle Ross Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Rafael I San Miguel Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Sachin Shailendra Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Marcia Spiller Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Greer Taylor Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Susie Trotochaud Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Caroline Warren Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Glenn D Warren Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Ellen Wiley Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Rayna Wooden Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 James Comer Yates Executive Director 40.00 X 190600 0 9530 Daniela Olaye Chief Financial Officer 40.00 X 135648 0 28292 Joan Robin Hilker Teacher & Learning Specialist 40.00 X 117459 0 7047 Aaron Spitalnick Director of Technology 40.00 X 155304 0 18565 Ryan James Director of Rollins Center 40.00 X 154957 0 38796 Lola Stringer Director of Afterschool/Summer 40.00 X 121267 0 16863 Laura Bollman Director of Strategy & Operations Rollins 40.00 X 119357 0 24659 1075311 0 158425 17 0 1 0 Flik Independent Schools PO Box 50196 Los Angeles CA 90074 Food Services 669730 Brownieland Pictures 3535 Peachtree Rd NE Atlanta GA 30326 Rollins Portal Development 583717 Lichty Commercial Construction Inc 3445 Buffington Center Atlanta GA 30349 Construction 436035 Jackson Spalding Inc 1100 Peachtree St Suite 1800 Atlanta GA 30309 Consulting 424722 Tangible Inc 33 Rue Bowen S 104 Sherbrooke Quebec CA JIG 2C4 Web Support 323960 9 270620 113298 23233533 23617451 Tuition and Fees 900099 14876370 14876370 14876370 1232930 1232930 508392 0 508392 508392 23250 485142 1102303 609556 492747 492747 492747 192165 270620 192165 0 40727890 14876370 23250 2210819 1488277 1488277 446838 93726 353112 15619267 14148369 1031250 439648 770719 697133 51549 22037 2107894 1876713 171915 59266 1155369 1023763 99438 32168 107486 14216 93270 47000 47000 102303 102303 1916663 1766454 143551 6658 143650 2959 140691 263419 257363 4542 1514 258802 253590 3475 1737 296007 296007 1310260 1250995 48115 11150 149987 149987 Supplies 1243296 1195077 46168 2051 Portal development 823585 823585 Expenses from restricte 495303 382961 112342 Maintenance and repairs 492378 476355 11881 4142 603449 384740 132418 86291 29841952 26432283 2743007 666662 673701 2241952 7872096 16018015 243040 280549 49429 68720 45593249 20010284 26202730 25582965 67775694 78122647 2360524 2026080 137007 240563 105314221 124581491 1963210 2295490 3085228 3333377 1000000 6048438 5628867 X 57562597 61877328 41703186 57075296 99265783 118952624 105314221 124581491 10885938 8800903 0 X 0 1 X 1 0 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 72143 72143 0 Part II-B, Line 1: The School hired a consultant for the creation and execution of a plan designed to 1) advocate in the State of Georgia's legislative and executive branches to generally advance the School's agenda relating to literacy;
