G. Stanley Hall School offers a high quality curriculum
in a specialized setting. Academic courses are taught in accordance
with Massachusetts Frameworks. As such, all students are required
to take Math, English, Science, History, Physical Education and Health.
These subjects are taught by trained and experienced educators who
adapt traditional teaching methods to capture student attention, reduce
individual isolation, promote teamwork and instill individual accountability.
Our robust curriculum is enhanced by additional program goals, which
