da2.gifDarrington, is located on the outskirts of Blue Ridge, Georgia. Nestled in the southern most portion of the Blue Ridge Mountains, this quaint little town a little more than an hour north of Atlanta provides the perfect setting for students to develop academically as well as in character. The climate provides an opportunity for students to experience all four seasons without getting too hot in the summer or too cold in the winter, while the surrounding mountains offer a multitude of year round opportunities for outdoor activities.

Darrington provides a structured environment with extensive supervision to a select group of students who need this type of guidance to progress academically and personally.

We employ a well educated and qualified staff to aid your student during their stay at Darrington Academy. These exceptional team members will allow Darrington Academy to offer a number of extracurricular activities not found in other schools. These activities along with our rigorous academic curriculum will provide students with the experiences necessary to gain acceptance in today’s colleges and universities.

The academic needs of our students are met through the use of the latest computer assisted learning programs. This curriculum provides the same content and rigor found in a standard classroom, without many of the distractions, and may be modified to each student’s specific needs. Each student works at an individual pace; quickly in courses they are good at, slowly through those with which they may struggle. The program is also very well suited to the needs of students with attention deficit disorders, because it uses a variety of media sources to present new information. Because the computers do most of the grading and record keeping, our exceptional teachers and teaching assistants are able to spend the majority of their class time engaged in teaching individual students.

Darrington Academy uses a student’s success in the classroom as a spring board for developing personal confidence and leadership skills. Students also participate in character building courses, workshops and seminars to enhance their academic and personal success.

All students who have successfully completed all "Character Building" courses including "Leadership Training" at this facility may be re-admitted to the school for up to 60 days of free tuition, if he or she does not show satisfactory academic progress or character development before the age of 18.

Seminars

The Residential Specialty Boarding Schools we represent provide a series of highly effective “Educational Seminars and Workshops” specifically designed to teach character building. During these Seminars, teens learn about key character-building qualities such as:
  • Accountability
  • Honesty
  • Integrity
  • Trust
  • Proper Choices
  • Responsibility
  • Self-Esteem
While the student is completing his or her series of seminars, the parents are invited to attend "Parent Seminars" and "Parent Support Meetings" held in many locations throughout the United States . The highlight of the seminars is when parents and students are invited to attend three effective "Parent/Child Workshops". These are designed to assist each family in improving communications and strengthening relationships.
