Our Mission
But there is hope. Across the country, nearly 30 recovery high schools have been established to help support students committed to leading sober lives as they continue their academic studies. Schools committed to a structure and culture of recovery improve students’ chances for sustaining sobriety throughout adolescence and into adulthood.
The primary mission of GPARE’s high school for grades 9 – 12 is to offer a strong academic program to students in recovery — one that allows them to focus on learning and provides a community that requires and supports sobriety.
While our paramount objective is to provide a meaningful and challenging educational program, we recognize that our students need time during the school day to develop tools and strategies for maintaining sobriety. These combined objectives will help our students succeed on the life-long road to recovery as they continue to live, work, and play in their communities.
Our school offers a variety of services including:
- High school credits for all core subjects necessary for graduation
- Placement services for transfer, college or employment
- Daily group meetings
- Learning support services for educational needs
- On-site guidance and crisis counseling
- Referral services for long-term counseling and/or treatment
