Dominion Academy

1002 Wilmer Ave, Richmond, VA, 23227-0804
Dominion Academy is a therapeutic day school for children who are in need of a smaller school setting due to a lack of success in a large public school environment. All of the students have an IEP and are associated with a disability related to academics and or behavior. Our goal is to provide a therapeutic setting in which our students can learn to identify the areas of weakness, strengthen them through staff support and return to public school if appropriate or to complete their education with us.
