As one of the leading therapy boarding schools, Solstice has designed their academic program to meet the students where they are and to help them develop an individualized academic plan. A typical day involves morning breakfast followed by a work out session. Afternoons involve school classes, therapy groups, and free time. Evening is set for chores, free time, reflection, and journaling.
