This research evaluates childhood mental health disorders and their prevalence. Public-school systems are tasked with providing equitable education and services to students in special education who are in need under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act. Public school districts may look outside of the traditional academic setting, to a non-public school, to educate and provide mental health services to these students. This case study provides the perspectives and experiences of students who participated in educational and mental health services at a non-public school. The findings include a student perspective of the importance of staff relationships, the academic advantages and disadvantages of non-public school education, and the benefits of embedded psychotherapy and available mental health professionals during school.
