- The mission of Dore Academy is to provide students in grades K-12, who have specific attention and learning disabilities, the individualized education to achieve their highest potential. The school strives to create an environment that nurtures and protects what we value most in our children: their curiosity, their talents, their character, their humanity, and their dreams. Our vision for Dore Academy is that we will be an innovative pioneer in the attention and learning disabilities fields. In addition to a strong foundation of strong traditional academics, Dore offers a unique signature experience focusing on the needs of the whole child. Dore students are problem-solvers, higher level and creative thinkers who add value to our community.
