  • Colorado Timberline Academy best serves and is dedicated to helping:
    • Students who have not done well in a traditional high school program as a result of poor motivation.
    • Students whose academic progress has been interrupted and who need remedial work to get back on track.
    • Students who are capable and often highly creative but have struggled to have those strengths realized and recognized. They are seen as arching to the beat of a different drummer and may dress or express themselves in a non-traditional and non-conforming manner.
    • Non-achieving but capable students who seem to lack motivation to do well in school and who need daily structure to provide incentive for success.
    • Students who respond to an intimate, family atmosphere with small classes and a very favorable teacher to student ratio to help students grow academically and socially.
    • Students who enjoy the outdoor experiences built into our curriculum and found in our beautiful Colorado mountain setting.
    • Students whose behavior and attitude do not require the more restrictive environment of a therapeutic, emotional growth or rehab program but who do not qualify for a traditional boarding school for mainstream, high achieving students.
    • Students who do not fit the mainstream of a public school and whose lack of success, often the result of a learning difference or difficulty, may have led to disciplinary problems or minor drug and alcohol issues.
    • Students whose lack of academic progress and behavioral issues have likely led to high levels of parental and family conflict.
    • Students who have successfully completed a wilderness program or behavior modification program and who are at risk of returning to prior behavior by being placed in a previous school or home environment.
    • LD types supported: Yes
