School Notes Overview:

Happy Hill Farm Academy/Home is a licensed, accredited, residential school that provides very specialized help to children who need another chance in life. Happy Hill Farm is not a correctional institution nor a prep school for the privileged. The program does not simply “lock up” children and postpone the estimated $94-billion secondary tax burden on society. Happy Hill Farm’s program changes the lives and direction of at-risk children, so that they will become productive citizens rather than an ongoing burden on society. A variety of staff professionals work in concert to address the overall needs of each student. More than 100 children live at the Farm and attend a fully-accredited (K-12) private academy. A fundamental belief - that each human being is created in the image of God - provides the strong spiritual underpinning for the mission of Happy Hill Farm Academy/Home to serve children in crisis and to strengthen families. Socially and academically disadvantaged boys and girls - regardless of their religion,race,national origin,or gender - are given the opportunity to live, work, and study in a year-round, residential school/farm setting. A balance is taught between the spiritual, academic, and practical in order for the students to prepare themselves effectively to assume their role in society as productive citizens while engaged in their chosen professions....
