The Briarwood School is the premier learning difference school in Houston for students with diagnoses including dyslexia, dysgraphia, and dyscalculia.

The Briarwood Way

Our mission at Briarwood is to empower students with diagnosed learning differences to reach their maximum potential through diagnostic-prescriptive instruction in a structured academic environment.

“Every child can learn and has the right to be taught in the way that he or she learns best.”

Founder Yvonne Tuttle Streit

A traditional school that teaches in untraditional ways.

At Briarwood we start our journey by identifying how your child learns best. Through intensive instruction, we strive to remediate weaknesses while teaching to each child’s strengths. This approach leads to stronger academic skills and increased self esteem.
