| Program Info: | The Cedar Ridge behavior management system is based on the Boy’s Town model of social skills and a system of levels that denotes progress through issues. We place a heavy emphasis on role modeling. Our mission: “Through modeling and teaching we guide youth in a process of positive behavioral change as they acquire the skills and self-knowledge needed to form healthy relationships with others and utilize their individual inner strengths to become mature, well-balanced, productive persons.” Daily life includes a weekday schedule that begins at 7 AM with breakfast and cleanup. School is from 8 AM to
noon and from 1 PM to 3:25, Monday-Friday. Karate classes serve as the lifetime fitness program and also provide a therapeutic experience. Off-campus karate tournaments occur a few times a year. On weekends, students participate in regular household chores, landscaping projects, construction projects, animal care, gardening during the appropriate seasons, and off-campus outings. In addition to karate, students participate in basketball, volleyball, and softball. |
