Social Emotional Challenges

Welcome to the Gamut School

Located in New York City, the Gamut School provides a rigorous education for students with emotional challenges.

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.”
