The Bradley School
What to Expect
During
a student's first several weeks at the school, a thorough, multidisciplinary
diagnostic evaluation is completed. Since this evaluation is conducted
within an educational environment, it allows the team to assess
the impact of a student's mental health needs on academic, behavioral
and social functioning levels at school. Information is also gathered
from families, community agencies and previous school placements
to understand the student as a whole person. This leads to the development
of an individualized treatment plan to address the needs of the
student.
Our goal is to help students learn to manage their psychiatric
and behavioral symptoms so that they can become active and successful
participants in school. From the moment a student is admitted to
Bradley School, an effort is made to prepare the student to return
to a less restrictive educational setting as soon as he or she is
able. When that time comes, Bradley School staff members work closely
with school personnel and other treatment providers to plan and
implement a successful transition.
