Information About

Forman School




The school grew over the years into a highly regarded gateway to college for learning disabled students. Most of the students were bright and had relatively mild language-based disabilities, most notably Dyslexia . In the 1980s, Forman was written up in Time Magazine and counted two children of comedian Bill Cosby among its students.

But in the 1990s , as mainstream boarding schools established programs addressing the needs of the learning disabled, Forman mostly stagnated and the quality of the student body suffered as a result of the brain-drain to more prestigious schools. Students with Attention-deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and a history of fighting became common. Some were straight out of drug rehab.

By most accounts, the school has recovered since those days and has returned to its core mission.
