Our Perspective

How we see Fraser Academy

The very best private schools are those that support a specific set of learner, and do it exceptionally well. Within the boundaries of that definition, Fraser Academy is certainly one of the best. The faculty are here because of their experiences with language-based learning differences—they know what they are, and they know how to address them effectively in the classroom. Students arrive here because they need that level of expertise, and moreover because they choose not to be defined by their learning differences, but to work through them. Here, they are understood, they are supported within a community of peers. That’s the baseline, and the program builds from there, celebrating each student’s abilities, passions, and successes. For the students that enroll, the experience is transformative, in part because they can be special in the ways that they want to be, and not because of how they learn.

How Fraser Academy sees itself

The school administration answered our questions

Who are you, as a school?

"Fraser Academy unlocks the full potential of dyslexic learners through innovative, research-based teaching methods and personalized Orton-Gillingham support. We empower students to embrace their strengths, overcome challenges, and excel in a nurturing educational environment, putting post-secondary dreams back on the table. Dyslexia affects reading, writing, and spelling but also comes with unique strengths like creativity and problem-solving skills. We view dyslexia positively and specialize in educating students with this learning difference. For over 42 years, we have developed a proven approach to help dyslexic students succeed. Our small class sizes of 7-12 students ensure personalized attention and a supportive community. We integrate arts, technology, and hands-on learning to develop each student’s unique abilities. Our comprehensive program includes sports, fine and applied arts, outdoor education, and clubs. Outdoor education is a cornerstone of our philosophy as nature provides context-driven, hands-on, interdisciplinary learning, beyond the classroom. Through a wide range of experiences, students develop a deeper understanding of self, the environment, and classroom concepts. Our personalized college and career counseling guides students in setting goals and navigating the post-secondary application process."
