A school-within-a-school where skilled faculty meet students’ learning differences with the individualized instruction that leads to success. For over three decades, the Hamilton School at Wheeler has served elementary and middle school children who have great overall cognitive ability, but who struggle with reading, organization and study skills due to dyslexia, attention-deficit disorder (ADHD), executive function deficits or other learning differences. We believe—and prove daily—that our students can learn these important skills and meet the highest expectations.

Supporting, Educating, and Empowering Students with Learning Differences

What Are Learning Differences?
Do you have a different way of learning? Yes, you do. We all do. Students who have been diagnosed with a learning difference— the term we prefer at Wheeler because we believe differences are not deficits come to Hamilton having often struggled with school. They leave Hamilton with strength in academics and skills for learning and life. In addition, Hamilton offers parent and guardian programs and resources. An outreach branch of our school, The Hamilton Institute, offers teacher training and workshops for the public.

You can learn more Hamilton on the school’s section of the Wheeler website.
