Wings of Faith is an affordable conservative Christian boarding school designed for pre-teen and teenage girls who are struggling with bad behavior, rebellion, or academic issues. It enrolls girls ages 8-17 year-round.

boarding schoolsThe school provides behavioral correction with an emphasis on Christian values, housed in a comfortable residential ranch setting. They focus on educational excellence, spiritual growth, and a healthy lifestyle with an abundance of outdoor recreation. They provide an environment that helps troubled girls see their issues and decide to make positive changes in their lives. Their methods have been turning around teen girls for over 20 years.

Wings of Faith is a boarding school so it provides a college preparatory program that will prepare your girl for a chosen vocation in life. Our school helps your teen to build her academic skills and earn the credits needed for a high school diploma. This program serves teen girls of all academic aptitudes. Those who are able can work through an accelerated progression to college-level courses. For those with more modest capabilities, a flexible curriculum allows time for mastery of fundamental concepts. We strive to see each teen achieve at the highest level of her ability.

Academic Curriculum

boarding schools directoryWings of Faith Academy offers a fully accredited high school diploma through its dual-enrollment program with Lighthouse Christian Academy. Lighthouse Christian Academy, the distance-education provider of Accelerated Christian Education® (A.C.E.), provides the opportunity for WOF students to receive an accredited transcript and diploma.

Therapeutic Approach

When a student comes to WOF, it is typical for blame-shifting, avoidance of responsibility, and sometimes complete denial of wrongdoing. Soon after enrollment, the student begins to regret the consequences of her prior behavior. Regret does not change individuals; repentance does. Many times, teens have been spared the heartache of the full-blown consequences of their negative decisions. WOF considers itself an early intervention program, intervening in adolescents’ lives before becoming an adult trapped in a dysfunctional lifestyle. Students are encouraged to be responsible for their own actions and hold others accountable for their actions. Students influence other students positively instead of the negative peer pressure that so many of our students face before coming to WOF.boarding schools directory

Testimonial

“I call Wings of Faith Academy a miracle school because God answered our prayers for our daughter through the school. Our daughter was very behind in school and the Wings of Faith Academy helped fill in her learning gaps and get her to the right grade level and even prepare her for college. Also, before we enrolled her in Wings of Faith Academy she had stopped listening to us and was going on a troublesome path but the staff at Wings of Faith have helped to restore our family relationships and even our daughter’s relationship with God. They provided the discipline and structure, preaching and teaching, love and grace through Christ that was needed in our daughter’s life. I highly recommend this school.” – Colleen B.
