We offer academics, communication courses, process groups, counseling, also implementing the use of the rugged wilderness. Generally consisting of conditions where the students go on hikes, camping and do other types of chores to help the student break down the barriers interrupting a healthy lifestyle |
| Director Name: | Sean and Denise Thorne |
| Student Profile: | Our program is designed to help teens struggling with one or more of the following problems: Experimentation with Drug/alcohol Desire to live outside family values Self sabotaging Defiant behavior Low self-esteem Lack of motivation Manipulative behavior |
| Academics: | Many of our students haven't been able to reach their potential due to the interference of their problems. We can help them achieve their educational goals through an academic program designed for each individual. This is done through an accredited school called North Texas Academy. The program provides courses and credits that are transferable to your local High School. The cost of the academics program is moderate and paid directly to the school by the parents. A second option is to check with your local school district, many provide independent study for students unable to attend class. In this case we will work with the school to administer work assignments. Accredited through Zion Academy |
