Help Your Child Achieve
Academic Success
Landmark High School’s four-week Summer Program combines intensive, academic skill development with optional afternoon activities for students entering grades 8–12 (student must have turned 13 prior to the start of the program), who have been diagnosed with dyslexia or another language-based learning disability (LBLD), which fall under the broader category of specific learning disabilities (SLD). Landmark’s program is personalized for each student and designed to improve reading, writing, spelling, math, and study skills.
One-To-One Tutorial
The daily one-to-one tutorial is the cornerstone of our individualized approach. Our students are bright, motivated to learn, and emotionally healthy, but need help to achieve academic excellence. The one-to-one tutorial is designed specifically for each student.
Summer Options
Landmark High School’s four-week Summer Program offers exciting educational, cultural, and recreational experiences. Students can choose from a Half-Day Academic Program, Full-Day Combination Program, or our Residential Program. Academics are based on intensive skill-building and strategy development while students can take academic risks, let down their defences, and build confidence. Learn more about each program:
Half-Day Academic Program
Students will participate in a schedule of four one-hour long academic classes each morning, including a one-to-one tutorial. The day starts at 8:30 a.m. and ends at 1:05 p.m.
Half-Day Academic Program students have the option of participating in lunch and study hall, which end at 2:40 p.m.
Full-Day Combination Program
This program includes morning academics (including a one-to-one tutorial), lunch, study hall, and afternoon activities where students can test themselves and deeply explore an extracurricular activity. Our afternoon program runs from 2:40 p.m. – 5:00 p.m. every afternoon except Fridays. These exciting and challenging programs offer students an opportunity to relax, enjoy our beautiful coastal location, learn some new skills, and make friends.

Residential Program
The Residential Program includes everything in the day program plus after-school activities, weeknight events, and special weekend trips.
Living at Landmark allows students to acquire the skills they need to be successful in college and beyond. The program encourages independence and individual responsibility. Students develop strong executive function skills and the ability to self-advocate. They learn how to manage their schoolwork and organize their time. Our students also make new and lasting friendships with peers who have similar learning styles and experiences. Community Nights and weekend trips (to local beaches, area sites, sporting events, and more) give students time to relax and enjoy our coastal location at a gorgeous time of year.

The daily schedule includes a morning of academic courses, followed by lunch and study hall during the week. Students are offered a full range of challenging and fun afternoon activities.

What Some of Our Parents Had to Say
“Hallie’s experience at Landmark last summer was the best thing that ever happened. My daughter’s enthusiasm for your school went beyond my highest expectations. Hallie started high school with such a positive outlook.”
Bonnie
“Landmark’s summer program was a turning point for my son’s reading and writing as well as emotional well being. It built my son’s reading, writing, and organizational skills from the bottom up. My son’s self confidence was lacking for years. It was great to see him so happy and thankful. I would absolutely recommend this program to other parents. These were well spent 6 weeks!”
