Behavioral Modification

Our students are held to high standards. Inappropriate behavior is confronted, consequences are assessed, and inappropriate behavior is re-directed. Appropriate behavior is re-enforced and rewarded. A merit system is used requiring each teen to earn various levels of status and privileges through a structured program.


Academics

Cross Creek has an extremely progressive academic program. Students do schoolwork on an individualized, competency based, college bound curriculum. Each student is assessed upon admission and then assisted in designing their specific course of study. Students are able to work at their own pace and maximize the learning process.

TASKS (Teen Accountability, Self-Esteem and Keys to Success)

Students participate in a series of seminars designed specifically for Cross Creek. During the TASKS seminars, kids work on specific issues such as: accountability, honesty, integrity, trust, choices, responsibility, anger and especially self-esteem.

After the student has completed their series of seminars then the parents are invited to attend a Parent Seminar and two Parent/Child Seminars. Parent/Child seminars are designed to assist each family in rebuilding the family

Activities

Both on- and off-campus activities provide a proper balance of recreation, exercise, learning, personal development and social opportunities. Initially all activities are on grounds.

Over a period of time kids may earn the privilege of participating in off grounds activities. The facility is located near several National and State parks which are wonderful for off grounds activities. A variety of other activities include cultural events, water sports, bowling, movies, etc.
Although Cross Creek School students are made up of boys and girls, they room in different buildings and are restricted from interacting with the exception of a few community efforts.

Growing and Winning

The combination of therapy, TASKS, education, activities and daily structure assists the kids in making new choices in their lives.

Working together with our parents as a team, is a key component to the success of the program. Families have frequent phone contact with their child's therapist and case manager (family rep.), and when appropriate your child is included. Communication with the family is instrumental in addressing issues, creating a family purpose and vision, reaching understandings, and setting goals. Commitment to each student and their family is one of the reasons Cross Creek is so successful. Approximately 90% of our graduates go on to take college coursework.
