The Highlands School is a K-8 independent school that educates students with learning differences and achievement gaps. Located on a beautiful 18-acre campus in Bel Air (near exit 80 along I-95), The Highlands School offers a full-time day program, homeschool extension, summer academic and fun camps, and tutoring for all ages and subjects (including test prep).
The Highlands School’s unique small-group instruction in Phonics, Reading Comprehension, and Math boasts no more than 4 students per group and individualized instruction. Large classroom instruction, with no more than 12 students per grade, includes science, social studies, art, gym, and music. Executive functioning skills and social confidence are taught explicitly in daily courses and woven into every aspect of a student’s day.
