Helping kids with learning disabilities make sense of their world.

Ben Bronz Academy in West Hartford, Connecticut, is a day school for students with learning disabilities in grades 2–12.

Since 1985, our unified approach has made a lasting difference for hundreds of learning disabled students. Our goal is to help students identify and correct their functional weaknesses and to develop strong, spontaneous thinking habits that build self-confidence and foster greater curiosity and enthusiasm for learning.

Our Mission

We believe that every child deserves the chance to succeed educationally. To accomplish this, we provide children with substantial learning disabilities an individualized learning program that enables them to master lifelong learning skills, achieve academic success and enhance their self-confidence.
