A Christ-Centered Therapeutic Boarding School

Getting Started on the Right Foot — Our Wilderness Program

The first phase of life at Shepherd’s Hill Academy is a wilderness program, designed to eliminate distractions, build trust and encourage teamwork. Removing electronics and other conveniences leaves time to contemplate deeper issues of life. The necessity of collaborating to meet basic daily needs calls for coping and teamwork strategies, pushing teens to consider their responsibility to others. As they watch staff and leaders who submit to God as the ultimate Authority, they find a reference point for themselves and can better relate to authority and to others.

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

troubled teen programAfter a time, when teens display responsible decisions and take ownership of their growth, they transfer 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 freedoms are restored. Careful training of parents in our retreats also happens during this period in preparation for the teen’s going home.

During both parts of the program, the teens receive regular counseling and attend 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 incorporate test prep for the SAT and ACT as part of our daily curriculum.
