About Turning Winds

Academic excellence is at the core of Turning Winds’ mission. Teens are provided with experiential learning opportunities, leadership development, college and career planning resources, field trips, and technology integration. The faculty is fully credentialed and prepared to provide each student with an individualized academic program, taking into consideration previous transcripts, learning disability, talents, and other accommodations. The average class size is between 8 and 12 students, allowing the teachers to spend time with each student.
Turning Winds is located on 150 acres along the banks of the South Fork Yaak River, offering a serene and expansive environment. Spacious shared bedrooms are provided in addition to nutritious, chef-prepared meals. The picturesque setting provides clients with the opportunity to engage in adventure therapy, experiential therapy, and recreational therapy.
