Mission
The mission of The Bedford School is to maximize the potential of students with learning differences and develop foundations for success.
The Bedford School provides a structured learning environment to meet each student’s needs, offering remediation and instruction in academic, social, and physical skills while partnering with families to support growth. The school fosters responsibility, self-discipline, resiliency, and organization, empowering students to become independent learners and contributing members of society.

• We believe that Judeo-Christian values help establish our moral guidelines; we welcome families of all faiths to the Bedford family.
• We believe that establishing a community of respect and support among students, staff, and parents is essential.
• We believe that hard work and self-discipline are crucial to building independence.
• We believe that a caring faculty who continually strives to grow in their craft is crucial for student success.
• We believe that students with learning differences should be challenged to reach their highest potential in academics, athletics, and the arts.
• We believe that students should accept responsibility and demonstrate accountability for their work and actions.
Philosophy
One of our primary educational goals is to teach students to be organized in their approach to schoolwork. A consistent and structured environment encourages quality work from Bedford students. Once students are part of a structured environment, they are expected to fulfill responsibilities that gradually increase with maturity.
The Bedford School maintains a non-discriminatory policy concerning admissions, employment, use of facilities, and financial aid on the basis of sex, race, color, religion, or national origin.
