Therapeutic Boarding School

A Christ-Centered Therapeutic Boarding School

Shepherd’s Hill Academy is unashamedly Christ-centered, believing that a change of heart due to a relationship with Jesus is the only true 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 a stay at Shepherd’s Hill Academy is a wilderness program, carefully planned to remove distractions, build trust and teach teamwork. Being without electricity and other conveniences gives teens an opportunity to contemplate deeper issues of life. The necessity of collaborating to meet simple daily needs calls for coping and teamwork strategies, pushing teens to consider their obligation to others. As they watch staff and leaders who submit to God as the true Authority, they find a reference point for themselves and can more appropriately relate to authority and to others.

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

troubled teen programAfter a time, when teens display responsible choices and take ownership of their growth, they shift to the residential program and move to a home on campus. This next step gets them ready to transition into society as privileges and individual liberties are restored. Careful training of parents in our retreats also takes place during this period in readiness for the teen’s going home.

During both phases of the program, the teens receive regular counseling and attend our on-campus, fully accredited junior and senior high school, taught by Georgia certified instructors. We desire students to continue their studies in college, so we include test prep for the SAT and ACT as part of our daily curriculum.
