Big Sky Summer Adventures is one of our favorite offerings and features separate 52-day courses for boys and girls.

We serve students ages 13-18, who are intelligent though have a history of conflict at home, declining academics and low self-esteem.Their friends may have changed and are no longer positive influences in their lives.

Our students benefit from an exciting summer experience that will heighten their confidence and sense of self and help put their lives back on track.
