Greenwich Education Group - New Story Jobs

Greenwich Education Group operates special education schools that offer unique environments and curricula customized for the specific learning styles of our students. It contains three NEASC-accredited, co-ed, independent day schools, Links Academy, The Pinnacle School, and The Spire School, which offer Executive Functioning coaching, unique learning environments, and curricula designed to meet the needs of their students.

Links Academy is also NCAA-eligible. Each school and program has grown out of a need in our local communities. In addition, Greenwich Education Group provides day and boarding school advisory services, college counseling, executive function coaching, tutoring, and test preparation.

The Pinnacle School is a NEASC accredited state-licensed Connecticut Special Education School. We’re redefining education for students with complex learning challenges. Here, tailored academics, in-the-moment support, and a collaborative approach to addressing unsolved problems empower students who may typically struggle in school to enhance their skills, grow their confidence, and gain independence as they make positive progress on the path to a happy and fulfilling life.

The Spire School is a NEASC accredited and Connecticut State Approved Special Education Program. We are an independent, therapeutic day school for intellectually capable students in Grades 8–12 who are struggling academically and emotionally. Our students have experienced anxiety and avoidance, struggled with executive functioning challenges or depression, and benefit from a smaller, supportive learning environment with robust academics and a strong health and wellness component.

Links Academy is a NEASC accredited school that provides an individualized one-on-one college preparatory educational experience at a pace that meets each student’s unique needs. Instructors at Links Academy are skilled at developing a vigorous curriculum designed to engage students in grades 6-12 in meaningful and intellectually stimulating coursework. Links Academy offers in-person, remote, and hybrid classes for all 12 months of the year. Links Academy also is NCAA Eligible
