Forman is a coeducational college preparatory school empowering bright students who learn differently.
Forman offers a rigorous, college preparatory curriculum.
The learning that takes place outside of the classroom is just as important as what happens inside the classroom. While the days are busy with academics, sports, and extracurricular activities, the evenings and weekends are full of opportunities to join others in schoolsponsored trips and events, to pursue personal interests, log community service hours, or just hang out with friends.
Physical fitness, good sportsmanship, and teamwork are integral to students’ success. Each year, students can choose from 26 competitive and non-competitive sports— both single-gender and coed.
Forman is a member of the Western New England Preparatory School Athletic Association and The Housatonic Valley Athletic League.
Many students find their greatest sense of accomplishment through artistic expression. Forman has a robust program with 35 courses led by professionals specially trained in the art of teaching LD students. Sample listing

Admission requirements
Student leaders set an example for their peers by embodying the values of decorum, dignity, compassion, and good judgment. These are both selected and elected positions.
Applicants are required to provide educational testing (within 3 years), including measures of cognitive ability (WISC/WAIS) plus measures of achievement (WJ-IV/WIAT-III). Forman does not serve students with behavioral and emotional difficulties or those on the autism spectrum.
