Since 1963, Crotched Mountain School has specialized in providing educational, therapeutic, and residential services to students with developmental and physical disabilities, grades K-12. We are accredited by the New England Assoc- iation of Schools and Colleges (NEASC), and are licensed by a number of northeastern states, including New Hampshire. Crotched Mountain School is co-educational. Total enrollment, including day and residential students, is 120 on average. Applications may be submitted at any time.
Crotched Mountain offers students the chance to learn and grow at their own pace, and at their own level, from mastery of daily living skills through a high school diploma. Opportunities abound for them to discover and develop their talents. We offer classes in art, music, computer-aided design, horticulture, and woodworking. After school, students may choose to participate in activities such as theater, dance, as well as in a variety of activities through our Therapeutic Recreation program.
Our occupational, physical and speech therapists, as well as psychologists, work with students throughout their day, both inside the classroom and out. Crotched Mountain offers a variety of residential options, ranging from community-based housing to our Children's Specialty Hospital for those students who require 24-hour skilled nursing care.
Working in partnership with families and local communities, our goal is to achieve the highest degree of educational, physical, and social independence possible for every student.
