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

Shepherd’s Hill Academy, located in northeast Georgia, is a hybrid between a therapeutic wilderness program and a boarding school with counseling. Teens arrive at Shepherd’s Hill Academy from all across the country, including from Nottingham, Maryland. Though it is a distance for some, parents find it constructive for their teenager to spend time in a new environment detached 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 offer a first-rate education, one-on-one mentoring and counseling, equine therapy, and teamwork exercises to help teens grow character and learn to make responsible decisions.

Getting Started on the Right Foot — Our Wilderness Program

The early part of a stay at Shepherd’s Hill Academy is a wilderness program, carefully planned to eliminate distractions, build trust and teach teamwork. Removing technology and other conveniences leaves time to contemplate more meaningful issues of life. The necessity of working together to meet basic daily needs requires coping and teamwork abilities, compelling teens to consider their obligation to others. As they observe 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 Nottingham, Maryland, We Offer a Well-Rounded Therapeutic Program and Accredited School

After a time, when teens display responsible decisions and take ownership of their development, they transition to the residential program and live in a home on campus. This next step gets them ready to transition into society as privileges and personal liberties are restored. Careful coaching of parents in our retreats also occurs during this step in readiness for the teen’s return home.

During both phases of 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 encourage students to go on to college, so we include test prep for the SAT and ACT as part of our ordinary curriculum.
