a
family choice school
The
Glenholme School is a family choice boarding school for children
with special needs situated on over 100 idyllic acres of Connecticut
countryside. Children ages 10 to 18, at admission, who need a
highly structured learning environment can prosper in this safe,
nurturing school. It provides a value-based program to show
students the way to academic success.
The
student who is not doing
well in the traditional
public or private school
can find success in a boarding
school like Glenholme.
Self-contained and departmentalized
classes, small group and
individualized instruction,
emphasis on living and social
skills, and a value-based
community guide children
on a path of personal accomplishment
and growth.
Academic
and social difficulties
relative to Asperger's,
PDD, ADD, ADHD, Bipolar
Disorder, Depression, OCD,
Tourettes Syndrome, or other
learning disabilities are
addressed within our highly
structured program, and
behavioral problems can
be addressed simultaneously
in a place where the emphasis
is on the "whole"
child.
The
Glenholme School is a pathway
to the future for students
with special needs and a
leader among all boarding
schools. Services include
a comprehensive academic
curriculum, sports, fine
arts, an emphasis on community
service as well as a complete
residential treatment program,
day treatment, extended
day, and outpatient services.
A Parent's View of Glenholme:
There's no place like Glenholme
A little gem of a school
With vision and with foresight
It will give us the tools
To move forward in life
In a positive way
It helps us react well
At home, work, or play
There's no place like Glenholme
With its beauty and tradition
It allows us to grow
Helps us make our own decisions
There's no place like Glenholme
And the folks there who'll guide us
They have the "know how"
They have a touch just like Midas
They give us the time to learn
How to cope
In a world filled with hurdles
They give us hope
There's no place like Glenholme
Just as Dorothy said
When leaving OZ, it was these words
That I read
"There's no place like home"
Which Glenholme can be for a while
It can comfort and guide
Each fragile child
There's no place like Glenholme
Where each parent can see
The young man or woman
This child is destined to be
There's no place like Glenholme
Where every boy and girl
Will mature into fine adults
Ready to enter the world
There's no place like Glenholme
They are second to none
This writer should know
They have guided my son
They have given him gifts
Which the eye can not see
They are returning my boy
Now a man, back to me
The greatest gift we will cherish
No matter where we will roam
Is the absolute certainty
There's just no place like Glenholme!
