School Notes

  • Bald Eagle Boys Camp is a year-around therapeutic camping program providing residential treatment for boys who are emotionally and behaviorally troubled. Our mission is to provide quality care for troubled boys and their families without regard to race, ethnic origin, religious creed, or economic status. We work together with parents, referring agencies, and schools to address the unique needs of each child. Our treatment activities address camper's problems by-
  • Helping them form a positive view of themselves and their problems.
  • Aiding them in respecting others and building healthy relationships.
  • Encouraging them with self-help and problem solving skills.
  • Teaching them that education is a positive, useful part of everyday life.
  • Facilitating the rebuilding of healthy family relationships.
  • Emphasizing spiritual values through daily interaction with positive role models.
