College Prep Program

Awakening Ambition for Learning, Resilience, and Leadership

College Prep Academics

New Haven Residential Treatment Center and College Preparatory School for girls provides powerful healing for twice exceptional students whose intellectual ability coupled with their executive functioning deficits have led to behaviors warranting an out of home placement. 

Twice exceptional students possess therapeutic and emotional concerns that are best addressed while replicating the academically rigorous environment to which they are accustomed and to which they will return after treatment. Therefore, the academic program is designed not only for preparation for college, but as an important part of a holistic treatment approach. Teachers take part in weekly treatment team meetings so that academic goals are supported in the treatment environment and vice versa. The result is a truly integrated program in which learning is supported in all New Haven environments.

Learning

Our students typically come to New Haven behind in credits, or having lost motivation in the classroom. Teachers and staff help to reengage students in the learning process by understanding their individual needs and style of learning.

Leadership

We want to foster leadership in our students. Some have already been in leadership roles and other students have the capacity but have yet to demonstrate it in their life.

Resilience

As academically talented as our students are, most of them struggle in social emotional learning; specifically in areas such as grit, resilience, social connection, and problem solving. The goal upon transition from New Haven is for students to self-rate their social and emotional skills as highly as they score on tests of academic ability.

Academic Outcomes

Academic outcomes are for two school years 2020-2021 school year and 2021-2022 school year.

Our Academic Approach

All of our courses are taught by teachers in a traditional classroom environment, including over 12 College Board-approved AP courses. We believe strongly that needing mental health support should not impede academic progress, but instead, that quality education coupled with appropriate emotional support is what allows our students to heal.

We view our education program not only as preparation for college and/or work but as an important part of life preparation. Our teachers take part in weekly treatment team meetings so that academic goals are supported in the treatment environment and vice versa.

New Haven’s education goal is to get our students back to their grade level feeling confident in their ability to transition back smoothly to another school setting or graduate and move on to college.

The New Haven school does not tolerate bullying of any kind. Please read our anti-bullying policy here.
