Landmark is a coed day and boarding school for students in grades 2–12 with dyslexia or other language-based learning disabilities (LBLD).

The Landmark approach empowers students to reach their academic and social potential. Each faculty member is highly trained and specializes in educating students with dyslexia and other SLDs.

Location

Landmark School has two campuses on the beautiful Atlantic Ocean coastline just 30 miles north of Boston, Mass.

History of Landmark

Landmark opened its doors in 1971 with 40 students and a small group of teachers on one campus. Today we serve 475 students on two North Shore campuses with a faculty and staff of 320. For more than 50 years, Landmark has grown and changed, yet always stayed true to its core mission.

For Educators

Outreach Program

Landmark's mission extends beyond its two campuses. The Landmark Outreach Program offers educators meaningful and effective professional development grounded in theory and practice in order to empower students who learn differently.

Since its inception, Outreach has partnered with hundreds of school districts and thousands of educators to enhance instruction for students with LBLDs. Outreach provides educators with a comprehensive and integrated approach to language-based instruction, including program design, instructional coaching, and professional development.
