A therapeutic approach to academic excellence
To set our students up for success, the Gamut School runs the gamut of evidence-based therapeutic and academic interventions.
The Gamut School’s unique dual curriculum of social-emotional education combined with rigorous academics celebrates, supports, and educates the whole child. We start at the 5th grade; we don’t wait for students with emotional challenges to fail.
Why DBT is important
“Dialectical Behavioral Therapy was designed to incorporate both change and acceptance in the same therapy: a dialectic that is very much needed in a middle school environment.”
