The 2025-2026 Panther Impact Fund

The Piedmont School strives daily to be the educational oasis that quenches the thirst of students who learn differently.

For more than four decades, The Piedmont School has been dedicated to providing a unique and essential experience to all of our students, kindergarten through 12th grade. We have worked to provide a safe, nurturing, and special learning environment for intelligent young minds who struggle with either ADHD and/or other language based learning differences such as dyslexia, dysgraphia, and dyscalculia.

With small class sizes, experienced and specialty faculty, and research-based programming, our students are able to finally feel success when they have often only felt defeat. Our students are taught about their individual learning styles, how to self advocate, and they are able to have a well-rounded educational experience while feeling that their presence, creativity, unique abilities, and individuality matters.

The Panther Impact Fund Annual Giving Campaign

At The Piedmont School & John Yowell Academy, we aim to reimagine learning for minds that work differently. We do this by unlocking potential and fostering excellence in each of our students despite their learning difference(s). We’re excited to launch our annual Panther Impact Fund campaign, an essential initiative dedicated to enhancing the educational experience for all our students. Your support helps us cultivate a vibrant, dynamic learning environment where curiosity thrives, innovation flourishes, and every student can achieve their full potential
