The Hill Top Preparatory School is a grade fifth through twelve preparatory day school for students with learning disabilities . It is located in Rosemont, Pennsylvania . History Around the late 1960s there was already a very small handful of private schools that educated the elementary school level children with learning disabilities. The teens however, were not given the appropriate support and understanding that was necessary for them to succeed because of the lack of programs that benefitted them. Many of the programs that were available often focused on one subject these programs would also mix these teenagers with others who were different as well. In addition, many saw these teens to be unworthy of being taught. However, Elissa L. Fisher and Ed M. saw that many of these children had a great amount of potential. She became uneasy as she saw that the attempts to fulfill these needs become more and more ineffective and unhelpful. She was determined to meet these needs appropriatly. Students with special needs Hill Top has a wide variety of students, many of whome have learning disabilities and disorder of nueral developments such as Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder ADHD , ADHD predominantly inattentive ADD , Asperger Syndrome , Autism , and Epilepsy .

Adele Diamond is one of the founders of the field of Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience . She holds the Canada Research Chair Tier 1 Professorship in Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience at the University of British Columbia UBC , Vancouver. She is a fellow of the Royal Society of Canada . She is one of the world s leading researchers on the development of the cognitive functions called executive functions, self regulation, or cognitive control that depend on prefrontal cortex . Since 1980, she has studied these functions from their earliest beginnings in infancy, throughout the lifespan in clinical and normal populations. These abilities include inhibition effortful or self control , cognitive flexibility, working memory, directed attention, and reasoning. Her lab examines fundamental questions about the development, neuroanatomical and neurochemical bases, and genetic and environmental modulation of those abilities. Her research on the genetic disorder , PKU phenylketonuria , demonstrating selective deficits in these prefrontal cognitive abilities in PKU children who were supposedly well treated, changed medical guidelines worldwide, changes that markedly improved children s lives. Her 2005 paper on the fundamental neurobiological and clinical differences between the inattentive type ADHD and those ADHD types in which hyperactivity is present resonated deeply with patients and clinicians. Many patients felt heard and understood for the first time. The number of websites devoted to ADHD of the inattentive type increased from four before her 2005 paper to several thousand by 2009. Her recent research on the Tools of the Mind curriculum, including a paper in the journal, Science, is affecting education practices around the world.
