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 arrive at Shepherd’s Hill Academy from the east coast, south, midwest, western states and west coast, including from towns like North Port.

The Wilderness Program is the First Phase

The early part of enrollment at Shepherd’s Hill Academy is a wilderness program, carefully planned to get rid of distractions, build trust and encourage teamwork. Being without technology and other conveniences leaves time to contemplate more meaningful issues of life. The necessity of working together to meet basic daily needs involves coping and teamwork strategies, 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 development, they transition to the residential program and live in a home on campus. This phase prepares them to transition into society as privileges and individual freedoms are restored.
