School profile

Overview

Westmark School, located in Greater Los Angeles, is a dedicated college preparatory institution that serves students in grades 2 through 12 with unique learning profiles, including dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, and other language-based learning disabilities. The school's core mission is to educate, empower, and celebrate neurodiversity, ensuring that each student is equipped with the tools necessary for a successful and fulfilling future. Westmark employs a differentiated instructional approach, providing tailored support throughout the school day instead of relying on pull-out services. This method is informed by the latest neuroscience research, with partnerships with leading institutions enhancing the educational experience. The school fosters a warm and vibrant community where students thrive academically and socially, supported by a strong emphasis on family partnerships and dynamic extracurricular activities. Unique features of Westmark include its low student-teacher ratio, specialized facilities designed to meet diverse learning needs, and a commitment to nurturing confident, responsible leaders ready to pursue their dreams.

Westmark School transforms the lives of students in grades 2-12 with diagnosed language-based learning differences like dyslexia, dysgraphia, or dyscalculia, often combined with ADD/ADHD, or other auditory or visual processing challenges. They also have bright minds and unique learning styles, but havenÕt been fully served in a traditional school environment. Since Westmark students learn differently, Westmark teaches differently. Westmark supports diverse learners with individualized instruction so students learn and achieve academically, socially and emotionally. Students discover their personal academic style and affinities as well as areas of need, as they uncover their passions and strengths and learn to advocate for themselves.
