We start each day rooted in the belief that every child can learn and has the right to be taught in the way that he or she learns best. Our role as educators is to assess the most appropriate methodology for teaching each child. We then employ those methods to provide experiences that capitalize on the unique talents and traits of each child. We also stay abreast of the latest research to determine how that research can transfer into our classrooms.

Who We Serve

Briarwood is an independent, non-profit school that offers children with learning differences (Lower School and Middle-Upper School) and developmental delays (Tuttle School) a broad range of programs. At Briarwood, we provide an environment that not only meets the challenges these different learning styles present, but also nurtures the whole child—intellectual, social and physical. We help students understand how they learn best, how they can take advantage of their strengths and how they can become their own self-advocates.

Welcome and enjoy your visit!
