Brehm School's Commitment to International Students.

Brehm School has long valued the diversity that international students have brought to its campus. Since 1982, Brehm has welcomed international students from diverse areas of the world.

Brehm is approved by the International Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP) and is a certified Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS) school. Brehm’s Primary Designated School Official (PDSO) can issue an I-20 to those students wishing to enroll at Brehm.

Our international students have represented these home countries:
  • Belgium
  • Cameroon
  • Canada
  • France
  • Germany
  • India
  • Ireland
  • Ivory Coast
  • Latvia
  • Mexico
  • Nigeria
  • Pakistan
  • Saudi Arabia
  • South Africa
  • Switzerland
  • The United Emirates
Brehm is an accredited junior-senior high school for students, grades 6 through 12, as well as post-high school for students with complex learning disabilities.

Brehm uses the term “complex” learning disabilities in recognition that students experience difficulties in multiple areas of functioning. Brehm’s holistic program focuses on the combined academic, social and emotional effects of having a learning disability. Our students often have multiple diagnoses affecting their performance with the core issue of having a language-based etiology. We recognize the combined effects of LD/ADD, language based processing issues, executive function issues and the social and psychological implications of not being successful in an academic environment. Brehm offers direct interventions for students with dyslexia, dyscalculia, dysgraphia, NLD, aspergers, anxiety disorder, tourettes, auditory processing disorder, speed of processing disorders and interventions requiring behavioral and emotional support as it relates to academic issues.

Brehm admissions decisions are made on a rolling basis, so there is no deadline to apply. For more information please contact Admissions at 618-457-0371 or admissionsinfo@brehm.org.
