Shortridge Academy is a highly-respected therapeutic boarding school located in New England. For over 18 years, we have been providing a supportive and challenging academic environment for students in grades 9-12. With an average of 50 students on campus throughout the year, we offer year-round rolling admissions with a minimum commitment of one academic year.

At Shortridge Academy, we prioritize the positive development of our students through our unique approach. Our curriculum is academically focused and therapeutically supportive, helping students uncover their natural strengths, recover intellectual curiosity, and cultivate joy in learning. We also emphasize the development of executive functioning and self-regulation skills, ensuring that students are equipped for success both inside and outside the classroom.

In addition to our main Academy, we also offer The Ridge, a specialized mental health residential program for teens who require therapeutic assessment and additional support. The Ridge provides a structured and caring environment to empower students to develop the critical strengths they need for their mental health journey.
