About Laurel Hall School in Frederick
Laurel Hall School in Frederick is a nonpublic, Type I full-day special education school operated by Brook Lane, western Maryland's largest nonprofit mental health system. We serve students with emotional disabilities, autism or multiple disabilities who need a highly structured setting with psychiatric support on hand. Enrollment begins with an IEP referral from the local school system, and our students come from Maryland, Pennsylvania and West Virginia.
Our Frederick building has nine classrooms, sensory spaces, a library, a gym and a curriculum resource room, with capacity for 50 students, and catered meals are served in our on-site cafeteria. We teach elementary (K to 5), middle (6 to 8) and high school (9 to 12) classes, plus certificate of completion classrooms for grades 6 to 12 that add vocational, community and life skills training, outings, volunteering and internships.
Classes are small, with certified special education teachers, behavior specialists and 1:1 adult support. Licensed therapists and counselors provide individual and group therapy as each IEP sets out, along with speech-language, physical and occupational therapy. Credits earned here meet Maryland's education requirements and transfer to the home district for a diploma.
