The Craig School of New Jersey

The Craig School of New Jersey is an independent special education school serving students in grades 2 through 12 who have learning disabilities. The program is specifically designed for students of at least average to above-average ability who face challenges with decoding, reading comprehension, and written expression. By focusing on these core areas, the school provides the essential tools for students to build strong academic foundations and transition into active, independent learners.

The curriculum utilizes proven, research-based strategies, including Orton-Gillingham structured literacy intervention and multi-sensory learning techniques. To support the whole child, the school integrates an organizational and skill-development system alongside essential related services. Students have access to specialized support from occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, and social clinicians to address their unique developmental and therapeutic needs.

Operating across two campuses—Lower and Middle School in Mountain Lakes and High School in Montville, NJ—the school offers a continuous educational path that includes college counseling, transition programs, and tutoring services. While tuition pricing is available upon request, the school provides a limited need-based financial aid program and flexible tuition payment plans to assist families.
