Research
The Hill School of Wilmington is a replication site of the program at The Hill Center in Durham, NC, which was founded in 1977 and is one of the Southeast's oldest and largest K - 12 schools for high potential students with learning disabilities and/or attention deficit disorder. Over 95% of The Hill Center's high school graduates go on to college, compared to the national rate of 40%. The average student gains full benefits of Hill within 3 years and typically transitions back to his or her school full-time.
Durham's Hill Center has documented its success in several studies, including partnership projects with RTI International.
For further information about the effectiveness of the program, please see study results HERE.
