The Best Tools of Wilderness Programs and Therapeutic Boarding Schools On Our Georgia Campus

Shepherd’s Hill Academy, located in northeast Georgia, combines the best aspects of a therapeutic wilderness program and a boarding school with counseling. Teens come to Shepherd’s Hill Academy from all around the country, including from Annapolis, Maryland. Though it is a distance for some, parents find it beneficial for their teenager to experience a new environment separate from their local peer group.

A Christ-Centered Therapeutic Boarding School

Shepherd’s Hill Academy is unashamedly Christ-centered, believing that transformation due to a relationship with Jesus is the only real and lasting change. We provide a first-rate education, person-to-person mentoring and counseling, equine therapy, and teamwork exercises to help teens grow character and learn to make responsible choices.

Getting Started on the Right Foot — Our Wilderness Program

The first phase of a stay at Shepherd’s Hill Academy is a wilderness program, carefully planned to remove distractions, build trust and teach teamwork. Removing electricity and other conveniences leaves time to contemplate deeper issues of life. The necessity of collaborating to meet basic daily needs demands coping and teamwork skills, compelling teens to consider their obligation to others. As they watch staff and leaders who submit to God as the ultimate Authority, they learn a reference point for themselves and can better relate to authority and to others.

For Parents Seeking a Therapeutic Boarding School in Annapolis, Maryland, We Offer a Well-Rounded Therapeutic Program and Accredited School

After teens demonstrate responsible choices and take ownership of their development, they shift to the residential program and live in a home on campus. This phase prepares them to transition into society as privileges and personal freedoms are restored. Careful instruction of parents in our retreats also happens during this phase in preparation for the teen’s going home.

All throughout the program, the teens receive regular counseling and are enrolled in our on-campus, fully accredited junior and senior high school, taught by Georgia certified teachers. We desire students to attend college, so we incorporate test prep for the SAT and ACT as part of our daily curriculum.
