A Christ-Centered Therapeutic Boarding School

We offer a first-rate education, person-to-person mentoring and counseling, equine therapy, and teamwork exercises to help teens build character and learn to make responsible choices.

Getting Started on the Right Foot — Our Wilderness Program

The early part of a stay at Shepherd’s Hill Academy is a wilderness program, designed to get rid of distractions, build trust and foster teamwork. Living without electricity and other conveniences gives teens an opportunity to contemplate deeper issues of life. The necessity of working together to meet simple daily needs demands coping and teamwork skills, giving teens good reason to consider their obligation to others. As they watch staff and leaders who submit to God as the true Authority, they learn a reference point for themselves and can better relate to authority and to others.

This phase prepares them to transition into society as privileges and individual liberties are restored. Careful training of parents in our retreats also happens during this step in readiness 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, staffed with Georgia certified teachers. We desire students to continue their studies in college, so we include test prep for the SAT and ACT as part of our ordinary curriculum.
