The Frost School, established in 1976, is a nonpublic special education day
school which serves children and adolescents with emotional and behavioral disabilities,
autism spectrum disorders, and related special needs. Frost consists of four unique
programs each providing a supportive and structured environment integrating specialized
academic instruction, counseling, transition services, and behavioral modification
specific to each student population. Our 12-month school program serves students
in grades K to 12, ages 5 to 21 who need a supportive and structured environment,
combining specialized academic instruction, behavior management, and related services.
The Frost School is approved as a Special Education School by the Maryland State
Department of Education and serves students from Maryland, Virginia, and the District
of Columbia. Classes are small and students receive instruction based on their IEP
(Individualized Education Program). In February 2003 the Frost School joined the
Sheppard Pratt Health System
family of services.
The Frost School Programs
The Therapeutic Community (TC) Program serves elementary,
middle, and high school students with emotional and behavioral disabilities, Asperger's
Syndrome, and other mild to moderate disabilities.
The Lodge Program serves high school students
with emotional and behavioral disabilities and Asperger's Syndrome.
The Oakmont Secondary Program serves adolescents
with Autism and Asperger's Syndrome who are expected to earn a high school diploma,
but require more structure than what is provided by the Therapeutic Community and
Lodge Programs.
The Oakmont Primary Program serves children
with Autism ages 5 to 15 in a non-graded program.
