WHO WE ARE
The Mission of Hamlin Robinson School (HRS) is to ignite the academic and creative potential of students
with dyslexia and other language-based learning differences. Since its founding in 1983, HRS stands as
the only school in the state of Washington exclusively serving the unique academic and social/emotional
needs of students with dyslexia. It is our vision for students who struggle in traditional settings to
experience the classroom as a welcoming and safe place for learning.
OUR STORY
Hamlin Robinson School has been at the forefront of serving students with dyslexia and other language-
based learning differences for almost 40 years. Our purpose is to fill an unaddressed gap in the K-12
education system failing to adequately address the learning needs of up to 20% of the student
population; those with dyslexia and unexplained reading challenges.
Our program is in high demand because of our reputation and record of success with students who learn
differently, and our specially trained faculty who teach students accordingly. HRS uses the most
effective known whole-class literacy instruction methodology, which is a comprehensive, multi-sensory
approach adaptive to the full curriculum of the school. Most importantly, students learn in a way suiting
their needs. For many, HRS is the first place they experience success, confidence, and a sense of
belonging in school.
Hamlin Robinson School values diversity and welcomes the unique contributions of people from all
backgrounds regardless of ethnicity/race gender, socio-economic status, learning style, physical ability,
religion, sexual orientation, and any other aspect of their identity. In 2023, the Board of Trustees
adopted the following Equity Statement, which is informing our DEIB work:
The Hamlin Robinson School community strives to ensure each student and their family has access to the
supports they need, within an inclusive environment that recognizes and honors all aspects of identity.
We aspire to create an equitable environment for each student, family, faculty, staff, and all members
within our community – a place where everyone thrives and knows they belong. We are committed to
this journey, which requires continual self-reflection, vulnerability, intentionality, and accountability from
each of us.
