Middlebridge School is a small, specialized boarding school located in Narragansett, Rhode Island — on the southern coast of Rhode Island, overlooking the Atlantic Ocean and Narragansett Bay. The school is uniquely focused on students with language-based learning differences, providing an exceptional educational environment for students with dyslexia and related learning profiles.
Middlebridge enrolls a small number of students — typically fewer than 60 — ensuring that every student receives intensive, individualized academic support. The school's faculty are trained specialists in language-based learning, and all instruction is designed to build on students' strengths while directly addressing areas of challenge.
The academic program emphasizes multi-sensory learning approaches, executive function development, and the building of genuine academic confidence. Middlebridge graduates regularly go on to four-year colleges and universities, with many achieving academic success that would not have been possible without the specialized support the school provides.
The Narragansett setting is a significant asset. The Rhode Island coast provides extraordinary beauty and a sense of peace that complements the school's therapeutic and academic environment. The nearby University of Rhode Island and Brown University provide additional cultural and academic resources for students.
