Peek into a classroom at The Laurel School and you’ll see something amazing.

A fourth grader who was once paralyzed with shyness confidently leads a class discussion. In another classroom, a sixth-grader with dyslexia masters geography by building a three-dimensional relief map. Meanwhile, in a lively kindergarten class, kids learn by using sensory-based toys and puzzles.

The Laurel School is a place where kids with learning differences who don’t fit into a traditional school setting can truly blossom. Our highly skilled teachers excel at special needs education and use innovative techniques to get students excited about learning. As a result, Laurel students can achieve academic excellence, boost their creativity, and build social skills for life.

"I was so bad at math in my other school. I’m really proud that I’m in a math class that’s ahead of most kids. It really shows that if you work hard, you can get better."

— Jenna, 8th Grade student

"At Laurel, we have lots of hands-on activities, like our chemistry labwork. We got to make bread and experiment with yeast, so I enjoy science quite a bit."

— Midori, 7th Grade student

"I’m learning lots of stuff. Right now, we’re making a journal. The teacher gives us a topic, and then we write about it. I’ve got lots of imagination!"

— Travis, 1st Grade student

"It’s fun to learn at The Laurel School. My favorite thing was getting the Science Wizard award. It was very cool, because I love science!"

— Mason, 3rd Grade student

"At my old school, I didn’t have many friends and I got really used to playing by myself. Laurel is better. I’ve made lots of friends—and they’re kind, funny, smart, and active."

— Camille, 4th Grade student
