Located on 450 lakefront acres in New Hampshire, The Wediko School is a residential treatment center offering therapeutic and educational services for middle and high school aged boys experiencing significant social-emotional, behavioral, and educational challenges.
The Wediko School’s social workers, psychologists, and special education teachers guide students through an intensive milieu of academics and therapy that the NH Department of Education cites as “how residentials should be.” Through the robust therapeutic milieu and a strong culture of community, The Wediko School students build social-emotional competence, confidence, and resilience in order to be more successful at school, home, and in their communities.
The Wediko School includes an experienced and passionate team of clinicians and educators. Social workers, psychologists, and special education teachers are committed to helping students thrive academically, socially and emotionally.
