Jemicy School educates talented and bright students, struggling with dyslexia or other related language-based learning differences, by addressing both their intellectual strengths and their learning needs. The school utilizes creative, multisensory, and research-based programs and techniques to develop reading, writing, spelling, and organization skills, promote a love of learning, and prepare students for the intellectual and social challenges of college and life.

Jemicy has two campuses in greater Baltimore. The Lower and Middle School serve grades 1–8 and the Upper School serves grades 9–12 and the Upper School Prep program. (www.jemicyschool.org)

The Odyssey School is an innovative school serving the needs of children ages five through grade eight with dyslexia and other language learning differences. Fundamental to Odyssey’s program is the understanding that language proficiency allows our students to become lifelong learners who see for themselves all that can be possible. At Odyssey, teachers encourage students to live the Four Pillars: Kindness, Honesty, Respect and Hard Work. Throughout the Odyssey student’s quest to become self-confident and competent, the Four Pillars serve as a compass for learning to navigate and negotiate the paths of developing relationships, forming friendships, and influencing others.
