Our Story
A Tradition of Excellence and Innovation
Her grandson, Mark, was diagnosed with dyslexia at age six and grew up immersed in that environment, raised by educators who believed school should be joyful, supportive, and built around the whole child. Together with his wife—an experienced Special Education teacher and CALP-certified dyslexia specialist—they continue the Harmon School legacy with a modern mission and a deeply personal purpose.
The original Harmon School was founded in 1952 by Lois Harmon, a pioneer in child-centered learning. Her school emphasized hands-on discovery, learning centers, and outdoor play—long before these ideas were widely embraced. Over nearly 50 years, tens of thousands of students passed through its doors.
