*"Excellence in Education Award"

We are proud to report that Glenholme has once again been rated as one of the best schools in the nation. As recently announced in the Woodbury Reports Inc. directory for "Places for Struggling Teens," Glenholme passed an extensive screening process and came out attaining the highest grade thus earning the "Excellence in Education Award."

"Each January Woodbury Reports Inc. asks a network of independent educational consultants to rate more than 300 residential schools and programs that work with at-risk teens. Consultants are asked to indicate which schools and programs, based on their safety and effectiveness, are of high quality, and should be included in the Directory. When a majority of these highly qualified consultants give a positive rating, with few or no negatives, the school or program is invited to participate in the Directory and complete a form describing their school or program."

"The Educational Consultants involved in this survey work for the families. Ethical standards commonly accepted within this profession prohibit receiving money from a school or programs for a referral. These consultants spend a significant amount of time traveling to visit as many schools and programs as they can and constantly compare notes with their colleagues. The only way a school or program can get a positive consensus from this group of independent minded educational consultants is to have a consistent performance record of safety and effectiveness."
