Eagle Ranch School Mission Statement
Through the healing presence of Christ, Eagle Ranch School offers students the opportunity to fulfill their academic promise. Through encouragement, meaningful relationships and quality instruction, students are empowered to make positive choices and experience present and future success.
Encouragement, Relationships, Choices, Success
Vision Statement
Eagle Ranch School (ERS) is a safe and supportive environment that provides opportunities for success through challenging and individualized instruction. Students experience an atmosphere of hope, respect, encouragement, and belonging that allows them to risk and grow as they take responsibility for their academic achievement and future success. ERS staff are devoted to Christ and operate from a biblical framework, so that through Christ, students can be equipped to fulfill God’s promise for their lives.
Preparing Students for Success
Fully accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS), Eagle Ranch School helps children improve their academic performance in an encouraging, safe learning environment. We meet children at their point of academic need: challenging them ready and helping them catch up when necessary. This is possible thanks to our exceptionally low teacher-to-student ratio – one teacher and one para-professional for every 12 children.
Our on-campus school integrates seamlessly with the rest of our program, helping to develop key life skills necessary for boys and girls to be successful:
- Strong work ethic
- Organizational skills
- Interpersonal communication skills
- Responsibility
- Resourcefulness
Eagle Ranch School serves children in grades 6-9. Elementary school and grades 10-12 attend local public schools, while receiving additional academic support through the Eagle Ranch School.
Partnering with Public Schools
Eagle Ranch maintains a close partnership with the neighboring Hall County School System. We work directly with an excellent elementary school (Chestnut Mountain Creative School of Inquiry) and high school (Cherokee Bluff High School) team of teachers and school counselors to support students from Eagle Ranch with their academic performance and behavioral skills.
Our School’s Mission
The underlying premise of all school activities is to help our children become internally motivated to succeed and to build their self-confidence. We want to prepare them for whatever their next step may be after leaving the Ranch: returning to public/private school, entering college, or joining the work force.
