Testimonials

"This was the perfect landing spot for my daughter. Public school (brick and mortar or online) was not for us. Full time homeschooling wasn't possible either.

My daughter needed Bay State to develop some anxiety-coping strategies, social skills, and be able to connect with a community of people. I love what they stand for and how they back a young person's mind. I am relived that she continues to stay connected even through this pandemic.

“An oasis of acceptance, and an opportunity for growth and learning”

Susan Brostrup-Jensen - Parent

"... she wasn't sure what to expect when starting at this new "school", but the staff and kids were all so incredibly warm and welcoming that she felt instantly at home... she has blossomed, becoming more engaged and extraverted than ever before.

If you're looking for an exceptional, stress-free environment for your quirky teen, Bay State is definitely worth a closer look."
