Hillside School & Center for Dyslexia Hillside opened in 2005 with a focused mission: to provide students with dyslexia the expert, individualized instruction they deserve.

Hillside School and Center for Dyslexia unlocks the
potential of dyslexic students through specialized
instruction, while also championing awareness and change
through community and professional development. From the start, our impact in the classroom was clear. But as we partnered with students and families, a broader need came into focus—one that extended beyond our intervention program. We saw that real, lasting progress happens when everyone around the student is supported too—when families are informed, educators are empowered, and transitions are guided with care. So, with intention and purpose, we expanded our work beyond instruction to meet those broader needs. Today, Hillside is proud to serve as Boulder County’s first Center for Dyslexia. In addition to specialized teaching, we offer learning evaluations, professional development for educators, parent and community support, and transition services—each designed to strengthen the ecosystem around every student.

A student is so much more than the areas they find difficult.

When we talk about dyslexia, it’s important to recognize the whole child, their interests, creativity, curiosity, problem-solving abilities, personality, and individual strengths.

Seeing the whole child doesn’t mean ignoring challenges. It means making sure those challenges don’t become the only thing we see.

This October, we’re choosing to See Dyslexia Differently. 💙

Your support helps Hillside see and support the whole child. A gift helps provide specialized instruction, resources, and opportunities that allow students with dyslexia to build skills, confidence, and a stronger sense of what they are capable of.

For some students, years of struggling can shape the way they see themselves as learners.

Then something changes.

With the right instruction, encouragement, and understanding, a student can begin to experience success where they once experienced frustration. A small breakthrough can become confidence. Confidence can become persistence. And persistence can open the door to new possibilities.

From “I can’t” to “I can.”

That shift is one of the reasons the right support matters so much.

**This Dyslexia Awareness Month, help us make that kind of support possible for more students and families. Your gift to Hillside helps provide the specialized instruction, resources, and encouragement students need to see themselves differently as learners.**

October is Dyslexia Awareness Month, and this year, we’re inviting our community to See Dyslexia Differently. 💙

To see the strengths.
To understand the challenges.
To recognize the potential.
And to help make meaningful support more accessible to students and families.

At Hillside, we believe awareness is only the beginning. When families are informed, educators are equipped, and students receive instruction designed for the way they learn, new possibilities open up.

This Dyslexia Awareness Month, we invite you to turn awareness into action by making a gift to Hillside. Your support helps us provide students with the specialized instruction they need, equip educators with tools and training, and expand resources for families navigating dyslexia.

Help us make sure more students have the opportunity to be understood, supported, and empowered to thrive. Give to Hillside today. 💙 https://shorturl.at/rSa1g

Dyslexia Is Not a Limit.

Dyslexic learners often bring incredible strengths to the way they think, from creative problem-solving and pattern recognition to seeing connections others may miss. The key is giving them the support and tools to access learning in a way that works for their brain.

With the right strategies, individualized support and an environment that builds confidence, students can move beyond frustration and begin to recognize what they are capable of.

When we support the way a child learns, we create space for their strengths to shine.

Dyslexia can bring creativity, fresh perspectives and unique ways of thinking. With the right support, those strengths can become powerful tools for learning and growth.

The goal isn’t to change how a student thinks. It’s to help them understand how they learn best and give them the tools to succeed with confidence.

Did You Know?

Students with dyslexia don’t learn less. They may simply learn differently.

Some students learn best through seeing, hearing, doing or saying. Finding the approach that works best for each learner can make lessons more engaging, strengthen academic skills and build confidence.

When we support the way a student learns, we help them discover what they’re capable of,

Academic growth isn’t only about better grades. When students understand how they learn best, they can approach challenges with greater confidence and feel more capable in the classroom.

The right tools and support can help turn frustration into progress and give students the confidence to keep going, even when learning feels difficult.

Help your child build skills, confidence and a stronger relationship with learning.

The goal isn’t to make every learner the same. It’s to help every student discover how they learn best and give them the tools to move forward with confidence.

When we understand how a student processes information, we can use strategies that make learning more accessible, engaging, and achievable.

Success will not look the same for every child, and it shouldn’t have to. With the right approach, students can build skills, recognize their strengths, and begin to see just how much they are capable of.

Every learner brings different strengths, challenges, and ways of processing the world. The right instruction should meet them there.

When learning is tailored to the student, it can become more accessible, engaging, and far less frustrating. Personalized support helps students build important academic skills while also developing something just as important: confidence in themselves as learners.

Because when students feel understood and supported, they begin to see what they’re truly capable of.

Academic growth doesn’t happen overnight. Building strong foundational skills takes time, practice and patience, especially when a student learns differently.

Celebrate the small wins. A new skill mastered, a difficult task completed or a little more confidence today can all be meaningful steps forward.

Slow progress is still progress. With the right support and consistent encouragement, each step can create a stronger foundation for future success.
