Activities and Training

The students' training schedule is very intense. Students are kept active and engaged in academics, counseling, skills training, and volunteer service. The Core Components weave through every experience and lesson. Weekends include major voluntary service activities and provide some relaxation and events that reward those students who have met the standards for each week.

The daily schedule structures the students' time essentially 24/7. The schedule insures an appropriate supervised mix of routine activities (maintain personal areas/clothing/bedding/common areas, hygiene and meals) in addition to academic time, homework preparation, life coping lessons, and physical fitness. Competitive sports, voluntary service and incentive reward events are also included in the weekly activities.
