Bradley Schools are private, school-funded, educational programs for children and adolescents whose psychiatric and behavioral needs cannot be met in a public school setting. The programs are accredited by the Rhode Island and Massachusetts state departments of education.

Our goal is always for students to learn in the least restrictive educational environment. We coordinate with school districts to ensure that, whenever possible, all are focused on the student’s ability to develop the skills needed to attend school back in their home districts.

Our partnership programs facilitate that process for many students, and for others we carefully coordinate transition plans to ensure student success
