Dartmoor School is an independent school offering one-to-one education at four campuses in the Puget Sound region (Bellevue, Issaquah, Seattle and Bothell). Founded in 1990 by reading specialist Doris J. Bower, Dartmoor began as a reading intervention school. Mrs. Bower saw a need for alternative approaches to education. She started Dartmoor School to ensure success for all types of learners by developing a one-to-one model of instruction.
Demand for credit courses and the desire to graduate from Dartmoor increased, prompting Dartmoor's accreditation and, ultimately, its transformation from a learning center into an independent school in the early 1990s.
