Wesley High School is one of Wesley Family Services’ two private academic schools in Western Pennsylvania. We serve students whose behavioral health, mental health, or educational barriers call for intensive therapeutic support during the school day. Classroom learning and therapy are coordinated in a smaller, inclusive setting, with staff working toward each student’s educational and treatment goals. Wesley also supports students in district schools and offers transition services for teenagers and young adults, but school placement is a distinct option. Families can ask their school district whether a referral is appropriate or contact centralized admissions to discuss eligibility and next steps.
