Reviews
The Kildonan School is solely focused on educating the Dyslexic student, both boarder and day student. It constantly searches out innovative approaches for teaching the basics as well as the arts and sports. Moreover, the school prepares a child for the outside world with critical thinking and service work. The school is small but has a large staff who are caring and extremely accessible from the headmaster to the teachers to the kitchen staff. My child is more confident, communicative and happy since attending school there. Learning is not limited to the classroom either - the school plans fun and educational outings that further a child's learning. The ski/snowboarding program is extensive culminating in a weeklong all school ski trip in February. Student can be found from all over the US and many countries. The campus is large and beautiful without being overwhelming. I'd like to be a student there!
