At Scotts Valley School, students live in a positive and non-punitive environment which inspires and honors responsible choice, and which helps each student identify irresponsible choices and the negative self-beliefs which support them.  Through our therapeutic program, students become increasingly aware of the choices they make which create the results they are standing in at each moment. They learn that they are free to choose a great, joyful and inspiring life or one filled with regret and pain.  And they learn that leaning into life’s struggles is the key.

 

Parents and family members may participate in the therapeutic program by completing the Freedom and Discovery trainings off campus.  This helps the returning teen reintegrate positively into the family structure and improves the lives of other members of the family.  Please visit our Related Resources page for further information.

 

Our Academic Program includes a comprehensive and fully-accredited college prep curriculum with advanced placement and honors courses available.  Students may complete their high school transcript with us, complete their school graduation requirements at their previous school, or finish their high school work at home using our system.  A GED program is available for students when this would be appropriate, and college courses are also available on campus.

 

We invite you and your family’s therapist to visit our Therapeutic Model and Related Resources pages to get a better idea of what we do and how we do it.  Please contact our office at 1-800-823-1723 for additional program details, and for tuition options.
