TESTIMONIALS
With compassion at the core, Wyncote ensures that every student feels understood, valued, and supported, no matter what the circumstances.
Dave Shapiro, Class of 2007
Wyncote Academy continues to be a blessing to our family. My son started his academic career in the public school system. We knew that he had difficulty reading. Initially, a private evaluation stated that his difficulties probably were due to being an English as Second Language student. Numerous IEPs proved to be unsuccessful. I made my son a promise that I'd find the key that would unlock the door to the way he learned. My son was diagnosed as having severe dyslexia. I was able to keep my promise to my son by enrolling him in Wyncote Academy. Wyncote Academy has an excellent Wilson Reading Program. The Head of School, as well as all of the teachers are dedicated to the students and are excellent representatives of their profession.

I love Wyncote Academy. My son was having difficulty in the Philadelphia public school due to the over-crowded classrooms. He wears hearing aids in both ears so that was a problem. Now that he is at Wyncote with smaller classes he is doing great.
