An Independent, Non-Profit K-12 School in Winter Park, FL

An alternate approach to learning for every student.

The Lyman School is a small, individualized program for children who experience the world — and school — differently. We build each child’s day around how they actually learn.

Creating an alternate approach to learning for all students

Individualized Learning Plans

Every classroom keeps a low student-to-teacher ratio, so instruction is built around how each child learns — not the other way around.

A Safe Place to Grow

From the first day, our goal is for every student to feel secure, valued, respected, and appreciated.

A Relationship-First Approach

We build a genuine relationship with each student and family, so learning happens inside a community that already trusts us.

“Trying to teach a child without regard for the child’s innate temperament and learning style is like trying to enter a room without regard for the door.”
— Donald E. Lyman, Ph.D., Founder
