Together,
We See the Possibilities.

GBS expands possibilities using an integrated academic-therapeutic approach.

PreK through 8th-grade students with a broad range of language-based learning disabilities make meaningful strides forward, becoming proud of their progress, prepared to engage, and excited to explore. Strong family partnerships are fostered through ongoing collaboration, robust communication, and family programming.

Our Mission

The Gillen Brewer School partners with families to foster the curiosity, independence, and self-advocacy of students with a broad range of language-based learning disabilities.  In an intentionally respectful and inclusive environment, our students achieve individualized academic-therapeutic goals while learning to build connections with their communities.
