Frost School Information

The Frost School, established in 1976, is a school and therapeutic day program that serves students with emotional and behavioral needs and autism and their families. Our 12-month school program serves students in grades 1 to 12 who need a supportive and structured environment, combining academic instruction, daily counseling, and weekly family counseling meetings. We use the Therapeutic Community to promote positive behavior, to encourage appropriate social interactions, and to foster empathy in our students. 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.
