ABOUT US INTRODUCTION
Landmark School is the largest, most comprehensive school in the U.S., positively changing the lives of students with language-based learning disabilities, such as dyslexia. Our goal is to help students realize their educational and social potential through an exemplary school program complemented by outreach, training, and research.

Landmark is recognized as the international leader in the field of learning disabilities. Since opening in 1971, we’ve become a pioneer in special education, with our programs for students in grades 2-12 and our extensive professional training offerings for educators, families, and community leaders.

We combine diagnosis and customized teaching programs, providing students with intensive 1-on-1 tutoring and a strong community environment that encourages our students to take responsibility for their own learning.

Through this intensive education program, Landmark students overcome their learning disabilities, discover new ways to learn and reach their own potential.

Some facts:

  • 92 percent of Landmark graduates attend college. Seniors in the Class of 2007 plan to attend schools including American University, Boston College, Ithaca College, and Purdue University.
  • 99 percent of Landmark graduates attain jobs after college.
  • 88 percent of those that take them, pass standardized state competency tests.
  • Each student receives a program of individualized instruction, which emphasizes the development of language and learning skills.
