Performance school has taught a lot about who I am as a person mostly how to ask for help if I need it or to not be scared for the future. On my time, Forman has taught Me more about who I am than I ever thought it would.

This school was a joy to be a part of. It allowed me to taste independence. I also got to learn skills that would stick with me for the rest of my life. For one, I gained the ability to be independent from my parents. At the time their values didn't line up with mine so it allowed me to really explore who I was. I also learned executive functioning skills that I still use today.

My son started at Forman this Fall. They have done a remarkable job with him. His grades were the best ever and he is motivated to do well in college prep classes. His prior school for ADHD just dummed down the curriculum which make unlikely that he would be successful in college. Having graduated from a traditional boarding school in the area, Forman has become a traditional boarding school with a learning center built into the curriculum instead of being an additional service.

On the surface, Forman School is beautiful and they say the right things to bring in students. However, the school does not serve a majority of those students appropriately. My child attended for two years, and they told me about wild, uncontrolled classes of disruptive students - cussing at each ot...

It's geared too heavily towards students with special needs, as when I was there, even tho I had ADHD and dyslexia, the material was way too slow and teaching barely progressed. There's also a lack of standards in the school, as virtually anyone who is willing to pay can enter the school. For exampl...

My son graduated from Forman in 2022 and finished his first year of college in May of 2023 and had an outstanding first year at college. He literally just told me 10 minutes ago he is excited to start his sophomore year. I can't believe he sid this to me this is a kid who hated school most of his sc...
