Since 1983, we have been Washington’s only non-profit school dedicated exclusively to these students’ unique academic and social-emotional needs.    We believe every child deserves a learning environment where they feel  safe, understood, and empowered.  With small class sizes (1:15 teacher-student ratio) and a structured, multisensory approach, students gain confidence and a sense of ownership over their learning through meaningful moments of authentic success. In traditional school settings, students with dyslexia often internalize their challenges as a personal failure. We exist to change that.    More than just academics, HRS is often the first place where students feel truly understood and capable. For families, seeing their child engage joyfully in learning, sometimes for the first time, is transformational. Hamlin Robinson School values diversity and welcomes the unique contributions of people from all backgrounds and identities.
