<p>Discovery Academy is a therapeutic boarding school located in the heart of Provo, Utah. Discovery serves teens ages 13-17. Our students are typically bright underachievers with emotional or behavioral problems that have resulted in struggles at home, in school, or in the community. These students may have trouble with substance abuse, behavioral problems, mood disorders, or learning difficulties. Discovery Academy is an excellent boarding school choice for teens that have failed in traditional boarding schools and/or are transitioning from other types of treatment programs, such as wilderness or intensive residential treatment programs. Discovery uses a single gender hybrid treatment model. Boys and girls have separate living and learning areas. They share some activities when their therapists feel it is clinically advantageous. Located in an urban environment, Discovery students have the opportunity to take university courses and even have part-time jobs while they are in treatment. Discovery Academy students have been accepted into some of the top colleges and universities in the country.</p> <h3>Specialties</h3> <p> Founded in 1989, Fully accredited academics, Licensed, experienced therapists, Urban living, learning and work environment </p>
Northwood Academy serves approximately 750 students in Pre-school through 12th grade. Students come from across the Charleston area and represent a variety of Christian denominations. When the school was founded in 1978, under the banner of Northwood Christian School, it boasted 80 students in one classroom. Today the school occupies two campuses, employs over 50 teachers, and is one of the ten largest SCISA schools. To accommodate the continued growth, a cafeteria, gymnasium, and additional classrooms were added in 1980. To further enhance the school program, a two-story education building was completed in 1985. Finally, in 1993 under the name of Northwood Academy, an upper school facility was completed. This facility includes classrooms, a cafeteria, library, and separate gymnasium. In May of 2000, both campuses officially adopted the name of Northwood Academy. The Lord has continued to bless the school in many ways. Our grade level Stanford Achievement Test scores are well above the percentile required for Advanced SCISA Accreditation. Also, our SAT scores have consistently been above the national average and we have had both National Merit and Commended Scholars.
