Brookhaven Estates families searching for a private school that specializes in dyslexia have one of the best options in North Texas just minutes away. Since 1971, Fairhill has served students in grades 1 through 12 who have been diagnosed with dyslexia, ADHD, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, or auditory processing disorder.
Our campus at 16150 Preston Road, Dallas, TX 75248 is easily accessible via Preston Road or the Dallas North Tollway. Every student at Fairhill has a learning difference. Every teacher specializes in teaching students who learn differently.
Private vs. Public
Texas public schools are required to screen for dyslexia and provide services. But there is a significant gap between what the law requires and what actually helps a student thrive. In a public school classroom of 25-30 students, a child with dyslexia receives accommodations layered on top of instruction designed for neurotypical learners.
At Fairhill, the instruction itself is designed for students with dyslexia. A 7:1 student-to-teacher ratio ensures every student gets direct attention. Multisensory teaching methods engage how your child actually processes information. And faculty who average 12-15 years of tenure with 70% holding advanced degrees bring deep expertise to every lesson.
Every classroom, every day. Teachers know your child by name and catch struggles before they become failures.
Our graduates arrive at college knowing how they learn, what they need, and how to advocate for themselves.
Since 1971. 70% of faculty hold advanced degrees with 12-15 years average tenure teaching students with learning differences.
What Changes
Fairhill is a college preparatory school for students of average to above average intelligence. This is an important distinction. We are not a remedial school or a therapeutic program. Students here are bright, capable, and motivated. They simply need instruction delivered in a way that matches how their brain processes information.
The result: students who struggled in traditional settings discover they can not only keep up but excel. They develop confidence, learn how to advocate for themselves, and graduate prepared for college with a 100% acceptance rate.
Fairhill is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools. Credits transfer fully, and transcripts are recognized by universities nationwide.
