Looking for a Christian boarding school near Munford, Tennessee?

You’ve likely been having difficulty with a rebellious or unruly teen in your home? Has your troubled teen been kicked out of school, or gotten into trouble with authorities? Do you fear for their safety? As a result, you may be considering residential care options; such as boots camps, a therapeutic boarding school or a wilderness program for troubled teens.

We invite you to look into Shepherd’s Hill Academy, which is relatively close by. For over two decades, Shepherd’s Hill Academy has been helping troubled boys and girls, helping them get back on track. We’ve helped hundreds of teens from around the country from homes just like yours.

Shepherd’s Hill Academy believes that a change of heart due to a relationship with Jesus is the only genuine and lasting change. We provide a first-rate education, person-to-person mentoring and counseling, equine therapy, and teamwork exercises to help teens build character and learn to make responsible choices.

A Hybrid Between a Wilderness Program and a Boarding School, with a Christian Emphasis

Shepherd’s Hill Academy, located in northeast Georgia about 2 hours from Atlanta, combines the best aspects of a therapeutic wilderness program and a Christian boarding school with several forms of therapy, including counseling and equine therapy. Teens come to Shepherd’s Hill Academy from the east coast, south, midwest, western states and west coast, including from towns like Munford.

The Wilderness Program is the First Phase

The first phase of enrollment at Shepherd’s Hill Academy is a wilderness program, designed to eliminate distractions, build trust and foster teamwork. Being without TV, cell phones and other conveniences allows teens to contemplate deeper issues of life. The necessity of working together to meet simple daily needs involves coping and teamwork skills, pushing teens to consider how their contribution impacts others.

The Residential Program is Next

After a time, when teens demonstrate responsible choices and take ownership of their growth, they shift to the residential program and live in a home on campus. This next step prepares them to transition into society as privileges and individual freedoms are restored.
