Extractions: Religious reform school accused of abuse in lawsuit THE ASSOCIATED PRESS 07/10/02 POPLAR BLUFF, Mo. A federal lawsuit on an Arkansas teen-ager's behalf asks a judge to mandate reforms at Mountain Park religious reform school in Missouri, and in Florida at their Arcadia school, calling their disciplining practices abusive. Missouri's Mountain Park Boarding Academy, according to the lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court in Cape Girardeau, has subjected students to austere forms of discipline, denied outside communication, limited bathroom breaks and allowed students to sleep as little as five hours a day. The suit is on behalf of 17-year-old Jordan Blair, who attended Mountain Park last year and later transferred to the sister Palm Lane Academy in Florida. Blair, of Alma, Ark., bolted from the Florida school while on an errand with a school worker. Mountain Park is an independent Baptist school enrolling 120 girls and 35 boys near Patterson, Mo., about 110 miles south of St. Louis. Palm Lane, in Arcadia, enrolls about 50 students.

ADHD: Boarding Schools And Summer Camps name last November 1998 to Blue Ridge Military Academy and moved to Pasco County,florida. List of boarding schools and Summer Camps for ADD/ADHD Children. http://www.christianadhd.com/bdgschool.html
Extractions: NOTICE: The following posts are taken from the Christian ADHD List List of Boarding Schools and Summer Camps for ADD/ADHD Children These have not been personally evaluated by ADHD of the Christian Kind so it is up to each family to personally check out any schools you may consider for your child. Please do this in person. An account of one member's visit to Bunker Hill Military School/Camp and an update on that school. My first thought was "oh no, not for a 6 yo." But then I finished reading your post. I know that it sounds like the only way out. Just seek the Lord's face on this one and do what He gives you the peace to do. My heart goes out to you. I don't know how you'll do it; but if the Lord truly wants you to take this step, He will give you the peace, grace, and funds to accomplish it. I do not know anything about boarding schools for ADD/ADHD. But I have a friend who keeps her autistic son in a home with very good results. However, she has had to move him several times to find a suitable program. Her case is very like yours- her son is high IQ, but was dangerous to those around him and to himself. He is not the typical autistic- he is high functioning. He requires 24 hour supervision and a challenging educational program. He understands what is going on in his head now, so he comes home on weekends and extended visits but asks to go back when he feels funny again.
