These schools are devoted to educate students with learning differences such as Dyslexia, ADD, ADHD, executive function difficulties, dysgraphia and other disabilities. Students who are frustrated in their current school setting due to their different learning style will find success and thrive in these academic settings that features small class sizes with teachers who specialize in learning differences.
