School history

Carol Brehm founded Brehm Preparatory School in 1982. Brehm resided in Mt. Vernon, Illinois, and was the mother of Tyson Brehm, a high-school student with learning disabilities. She founded the school in order to provide a program which would meet the needs of her son and other children with learning disabilities. Carbondale was selected largely due to proximity to resources in higher education such as Southern Illinois University and John A. Logan College.Шаблон:Citation needed

Recreation

Brehm has a recreation program managed by Kenya Govan (Director of Student Life) and Adriana Coleman (Recreation Coordinator) and staffed by dedicated local college students.[4] The recreational program is designed around tier level and staff input. Weekday activities vary and may include swimming, paintball, Art Club, flag football, Future Business Leaders of America Club, bowling, fishing, basketball, soccer, and volunteer opportunities.[5] Weekend recreation allows for more involved activities such as hiking, trips to St. Louis sites such as the zoo, museum, water park (once or twice a year) sporting events, and Southern Illinois University sponsored events (opera, theater, ballet, lectures, and more). Individual programs offered include personal training, dance, fitness, and gymnastics.[5]

Dormitory life

Boarding students are supervised by Dorm Parents and multiple assistants. The Dorm Parent works within the boarding setting to achieve success socially and emotionally. Brehm currently utilizes five on-campus dormitories that house 12-20 students each.
