Briarwood is a school for children with learning differences and learning disabilities.
"EVERY CHILD CAN LEARN AND HAS THE RIGHT TO BE TAUGHT IN THE WAY THAT HE OR SHE LEARNS BEST."
The goal of Briarwood is to provide a learning environment that fosters the total development of each student and builds academic skills, increases motivation, and bolsters self-esteem. By identifying a child’s learning style, remediating weaknesses, and teaching to strengths, Briarwood provides each child with a solid foundation that serves as the basis for future successes.
The mission of Briarwood is to empower students with diagnosed learning differences or developmental disorders to reach their maximum potential through diagnostic-prescriptive instruction in a structured academic environment.
Briarwood has greatly encouraged me to go the extra mile academically, athletically, and socially. I have truly gained the best high school experience that any student could ask for. I hope to pursue only greatness in my future, and embellish my life in college with all that I have gained from this school. The spirit of Briarwood will always be part of me, and I am ever so grateful to have it!

These are just a few of the colleges that have accepted our students!

Who We Serve
We eagerly serve students who have a diagnosed learning difference or disability, but may be struggling in their current school. For students and families who want to remediate, learn, achieve and succeed, Briarwood can be just the right fit.
After Briarwood
We offer the tools to help each student find their own success. For some that could be eventually transitioning to another school, for others it may include graduating from Briarwood and seeking careers or college. The options are limitless.
Remediation
Briarwood's Specialized staff addresses students' needs as they move through the intense remediation process offered at Briarwood. An individual plan is developed through a diagnostic-prescriptive approach, which allows the staff to formulate the best path to remediation for each student.
