Troubled teens in transition come to our Christian Boarding School from all over the world. We maintain separate facilities for girl and boy resident students. The purpose of this program is to restore the child to his or her family in a Christ centered manner. Our fulltime, live-in staff works with the students through counseling, helping with homework, teaching responsibility, and discipling them in the Word of God. New Creations boarding school enrolls students ages 12-17. We provide Christ centered training, education and counseling. Our boarding school curriculum affords every student a uniquely tailored schedule of classes. The student's academic program begins immediately after diagnostic testing. It is computer based, which allows the student to pace his own progress and receive individual attention at the same time. Daily classroom progress for our students is linked to our level system. Personal growth and academic progress are linked to advancement up through the level system and gaining privilages for the teen in transition.


We Cater To:

1) Parents of troubled teens who want to place their student in a boarding school program or parents who want their student in a boarding school for Christian training and education. Our program can be for one or more school terms and can easily begin in days after leaving any other school system. It picks up at the student's last successful academic level. The purpose of this program is to continue the parent's Christian values and achieve academic results.
2) Parents who have a troubled teen in transition and want their child in the boarding school.
3) Parents who require additional help managing their troubled teen. Most students remain on campus for 18 months or until they attain the appropriate level for their age.

Our goals for troubled teens in transition are these:

1) Introduce each boarding school student into a relationship with Jesus Christ.
2) Reunite and restore each boarding school student with their family.
3) We aid each student to go as far as they can academically.

Our Counseling
In residential care we believe that the most effective counseling is done during the student's daily activities. Our staff observe the resident's behavior and come to know them as they live among us. Many of the teens have been forced to attend structured counseling with little or no participation on their behalf. Therefore we approach counseling through biblical or pastoral methods with the Bible as our basis. We also require weekly biblical character trait teaching that operates in small groups which is conducive to open discussion by the teen.

Our Students

We work with rebellious, defiant, at risk teens in transition and all manner of behavioral problems, diagnosed and undiagnosed. Our success stories are as diverse as the teens that come to us. We regard a student's family as part of the growth process for a teen in transition. With eighty-five percent of our staff being married couples, our orientation strongly supports traditional family values.

Finances
It is our desire to help make the financing of a Christian boarding school education as easy as possible. After the initial admission expenses, the monthly support cost is $2,500.00. We maintain several affordable financing options to meet the needs of our families. We work with parents to make the boarding school choice possible.
