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

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 real and lasting change.

Getting Started on the Right Foot — Our Wilderness Program

The first phase of a stay at Shepherd’s Hill Academy is a wilderness program, intended to get rid of distractions, build trust and encourage teamwork. Being without electronics and other conveniences allows teens to contemplate deeper issues of life. The necessity of cooperating to meet simple daily needs involves coping and teamwork strategies, compelling 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 Montgomery Village, Maryland, We Offer a Well-Rounded Therapeutic Program and Accredited School

After teens demonstrate responsible decisions and take ownership of their development, they transfer to the residential program and move to a home on campus. This phase prepares them to transition into society as privileges and individual freedoms are restored. Careful instruction of parents in our retreats also takes place during this phase in preparation 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, staffed with Georgia certified instructors. We desire students to go on to college, so we include test prep for the SAT and ACT as part of our regular curriculum.
