School Reviews

5  
Dartmoor School has been an amazing experience for my child. We were seeing low self esteem issues and failing grades in middle school. Shifting to a 1:1 model, where my child was able to succeed both academically and emotionally, was a game changer. The instructors were caring and in my child's own words "taught me in a way that I really understood the lesson". I ABSOLUTELY recommend Dartmoor for any parent, who has a child that is not thriving in a larger traditional school setting.
