Montana Academy
About the School
- Montana Academy is a therapeutic boarding school, emphasizes both treatment and education.
- We endeavor to provide sophisticated clinical expertise in a simple environment.
- On a remote Montana ranch, the school combines an emotional growth curriculum designed for psychologically troubled youth with a dual academic program grounded in practical tasks to suit students disenchanted with and disengaged from conventional classrooms.
- Experienced clinicians, trained teachers and seasoned outdoorsmen integrate treatment and learning in the classroom, in the kitchen, on the ranch, on the river and around mountain campfires.
- Montana Academy aims to teach students whose emotional problems have disrupted learning in both academic content areas and in learning process.
- Many troubled students have not yet learned how to learn and flounder in conventional crowded classrooms as a result.
- Students at various grade levels and with differing skills work together on core subjects, aided by certified teachers skilled in teaching students of varying abilities and motivations.
- Students receive personal attention afforded by smaller class sizes.
