Our mission is to educate and support students to become confident, independent, and engaged learners.&nbsp; Our individualized, academic-therapeutic approach to education incorporates speech and language therapy, occupational therapy, counseling, and social groups throughout each child&rsquo;s daily schedule. Students are immersed in learning which is developmentally appropriate and socially engaging.&nbsp; &nbsp; Our teachers and therapists are cross-trained in each academic and therapeutic speciality in order to provide a holistic and integrated program. Students benefit from small class sizes, and enjoy specials such as art, music, physical education, science, and technology.&nbsp; &nbsp; Central to our program is the home-school partnership, in which Gillen Brewer staff work closely with families to support the whole child in achieving their goals.&nbsp; Our Admissions Team is here to discuss how The Gillen Brewer School can partner with your family.
