Montana Academy

Established in 1997, Montana Academy is a non-profit, co-educational, therapeutic boarding school located in Northwest Montana. Known for a unique combination of clinical sophistication, ambitious academics and an effective therapeutic program, the leadership and staff at Montana Academy bring more than 175 years of cumulative experience to students and their families. Our approach in working with adolescent struggles requires a coordinated and sustained effort which promotes developmental maturation through healthy relationships. Montana Academy’s clinical, academic and program structures have been designed from this understanding and promote this goal – to help struggling students move on to academic and interpersonal successes, which follow from a restoration of normal adolescent maturity. For the past two decades, Montana Academy has taken an approach that places character development at the heart of our developmental model in helping young men and women mature. Our community is one in which we combine a comprehensive array of therapeutics, college preparatory academics and a robust offering of experiential and skill-building programmatic opportunities. Montana Academy strives for an integrated coeducational community in which engagement in each of these areas informs an understanding of and engagement with the other, ultimately leading to the development of mature character.
