After a comprehensive on site visit, The Northwest Association of Accredited School recently awarded Wisdom Ranch School its highest level of accreditation, granting a six year term. After touring the facility and meeting with students and staff, the team commended Wisdom Ranch School for the following:
- For employing a unique academic - ranch life approach to learning.
- For engaging the students in group learning and classroom activities as an important source of teaching and learning.
- For having a staff of Highly Qualified teachers who offer curriculum applicable to students' unique learning style.
- For having extremely proficient and knowledgeable staff.
- For an innovative approach to working with students who have unique and unusual learning circumstances
- For providing an intensive, personal and meaningful living and educational setting for students to achieve life success.
- For providing a learning setting that is practical and useful and that should translate into human relationship skills, as well as better that average academic achievement.
"We are very proud of the results of the evaluation. It represents years of hard work and dedication," says John Tucker, the school's Academic Director. "Over the years we have shown an exceptional ability to work with students who have lost academic confidence, have become demoralized in school, or who need to reconnect with an interest in learning. It is heartening to have the accreditation committee recognize that."
Wisdom Ranch School is an alternative experiential boarding school serving students in need of academic and personal success. We are located on a 2000 acre working cattle ranch in central Idaho. For more please visit us at www.wisdomranch.org.
