Maplebrook School

Maplebrook offers educational programs both for high school students and for post secondary studies. There are two post secondary programs: the C. A. P. S Program – Center for the Advancement of Post Secondary Studies; and the T. L. C. Program – Transitional Living Center.

Maplebrook is situated in the foothills of the Berkshire Mountains approximately 90 mile (145 km) north of New York City. The school consists of twenty nine buildings in addition to tennis courts, a swimming pool and athletic fields spread throughout the campus.

The academic complex contains seventeen classrooms, including a science laboratory, a home and consumer economics classroom, and two computer resource centers. The computer resource centers are fully equipped with new computers, printers, CD ROM players, and computer projection for large group instruction. The facilities also include a bookstore, horticulture lab, woodworking shop and a library containing more than 7,000 volumes. In addition, there are several tutoring rooms, and offices for psychologists, speech and language therapists, chaplains, nurse, and other administrative personnel in addition to a student center, mail room, and a school store. Intramural sports are also available throughout the academic year. Some intramural choices are floor hockey, volleyball, golf, hiking, cycling, and weight/fitness, though more options are available if there is sufficient interest in students. Some students advance to higher education, and a few have earned four year college degrees. But for most, the goal after Maplebrook is to live and work independently.
