my school

Elk River Treatment Program is a residential teen treatment center focused on providing the highest quality professional care and teen rehabilitation available. We offer specialized programs for troubled teens dealing with behavioral and emotional issues, as well as drug rehab for teens struggling with addiction. In addition, Elk River has a fully accredited academic program on campus so residents don’t fall behind in school while receiving care.

I think that this school is perfect for your child edumacation because the teachers are very rad. The only flaw is that this school is overflowing with dirty mehicans and the kids at this school show bobs and vagene .

It has a great Christian base. And fantastic education.

We made the choice to transfer from HCS a year and a half ago for our son to move through high school. This has been a great place for our family and we have experienced thoughtful and effective teaching, solid leadership and a good curriculum. We really do appreciate GLS!

Great option for special needs children.

Excellent School!

I love the atmosphere there everybody is so happy.

This school upholds the Reggio Emilia education philosophy. It was created by teacher Loris Malaguzzi, and implemented into schools around Reggio Emilia, Italy, following WW2. "The program is based on the principles of respect, responsibility, and community through exploration and discovery in a supportive and enriching environment based on the interests of the children through a self-guided curriculum" (wiki) This means a break from traditional standards. E.g. Instead of "Today I practiced the letter A", it's "Today we studied caterpillars". This is not to besmirch traditional teaching styles, but simply to highlight that this school is very exclusive in it's approach. The kids spend time exploring outside, doing crafts (painting, clay sculpting, drawing, etc), catching (and sometimes raising) insects, feeding the goats, etc. They are always involved in some new thing or another! The teaching staff is very dedicated and committed, and the relationship between child/teacher/parent is very personal and sincere. My wife noted that the school feels more European, as the rooms are open/connected for promoting social interaction, and the preschool has children of various ages (3-5), which was a plus for me.

This place has been nothing but a blessing to our family!! The school has challenged my son and he has rose to the challenge and excelled!!!

Best choice made for my children's education. Wonderful Staff and a Principal who actually is involved with the kids. Excellent honors & AP classes. Prepares for a easy transition into College having been taught time management, study skills, and basic life skills. The School has various sports and a plethora of Clubs. Not to mention the Mass and prayers helping keep the kids intact with their morals, respectful attitudes towards each other, and values. Thumbs up!#
