Students with ADHD and executive functioning challenges can struggle in traditional school environments that lack structure, personalization, and consistent support. At Middlebridge, educational design is intentionally built around how these students learn best. Through small classes, explicit executive functioning instruction, strong relationships, and engaging, hands-on learning, Middlebridge creates an environment where students develop the skills, confidence, and independence needed for long-term success.

At Middlebridge School, learning extends far beyond the classroom. Through internships across South County, students explore careers, build real-world skills, and form meaningful community connections—discovering who they are and who they can become.

Middlebridge’s seaside setting is more than a picturesque backdrop—it’s a powerful part of how our students learn, connect, and grow. From the historic grounds of Hazard Castle to our cathedral-like beech tree grove and hands-on agriculture program, every facet of our environment nurtures confidence, curiosity, and belonging. Here, the ocean, the land, and the seasons work together to create a community where students truly Belong & Become.

Choosing the right school is a deeply personal and emotional decision for families.
