Troubled Teens

Things Teens Need to Succeed

Reality:
Today's Teens are given more while having to do less to earn it than any previous generation. Instead of being appreciative of this generosity, many teens begin feeling an entitlement. Teens often feel they are entitled to current privileges and comforts without any effort on their part. This is far from reality. Many teens often struggle in school because they lack reality that they are responsible in doing their school work. So they develop poor study habits and lack personal commitment. Specialty schools fix this problem by holding each student accountable for their school work. This quickly helps the student realize that they need good study habits to get good grades. This helps prepare students for college and life.

Participants in our programs experience a lifestyle that reflects what it would be like for them if they did not have what their parents, or others have provided for them.

Respect:
Specialty Schools are designed to teach respect. This includes respect for others, property, self, authority figures, and more important; respect for rules and expectations. Our programs offers a military-type regimentation including a strong set of rules with high expectations and follow through. Failure to follow rules or commands will bring immediate consequences. Participants quickly develop a solemn respect for rules, orders, and authority figures. Through this process, participants develop a new-found respect for themselves and others.

Responsibility:
Specialty Schools are geared for personal responsibility as a critical character trait that must be internalized in order for any individual to achieve success in society. Every aspect of the program focuses on participants becoming responsible. Respectively, participants are also held responsible for their attitudes, behaviors and actions.
Once participants demonstrate the ability to be appropriately responsible for their selves, they become eligible to participate in the Leadership Program. This effective training program requires participants who qualify to take responsibility for others as well as themselves.
