Therapeutic Boarding School

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 genuine and lasting change. We provide a first-rate education, one-on-one mentoring and counseling, equine therapy, and teamwork exercises to help teens develop character and learn to make responsible choices.

Getting Started on the Right Foot — Our Wilderness Program

The first phase of life at Shepherd’s Hill Academy is a wilderness program, intended to get rid of distractions, build trust and foster teamwork. Removing technology and other conveniences allows teens to contemplate more meaningful issues of life. The necessity of cooperating to meet basic daily needs involves coping and teamwork abilities, pushing teens to consider how their contribution impacts others. As they watch staff and leaders who submit to God as the ultimate Authority, they learn a reference point for themselves and can more appropriately relate to authority and to others.

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

This phase prepares them to transition into society as privileges and individual liberties are restored. Careful coaching of parents in our retreats also happens during this step in readiness for the teen’s return home.

During both parts of the program, the teens receive regular counseling and are enrolled in our on-campus, fully accredited junior and senior high school, staffed with Georgia certified teachers. We encourage students to continue their studies in college, so we incorporate test prep for the SAT and ACT as part of our regular curriculum.
