Thayer Learning Center
Thayer Learning Center boot camp is a life-changing experience for teens ages 13-17. This highly structured multi-phase program is designed to help troubled teens from all backgrounds. Thayer Learning Center is family oriented and specifically designed to help Parents regain control in their own homes and instill their own personal beliefs and values. TLC does this by:
-
Putting Parents Back In Charge
Parents are intricately involved in all decisions made regarding their teenager throughout the program. Communication between our staff and the parents is imperative to ensure consistency in each teenager’s education and behavior modification. Each family is assigned a Family Rep. This staff member serves as a mediator between the parent and their teenager throughout the program. The Family Rep will be available to the parents to answer questions, give weekly updates, and ensure progress is being made in healing the family relationship. Parents are regularly consulted about consequences for their teenagers and asked to share their values and beliefs with their teenager. This type of communication not only helps to heal a damaged relationship, but also shows the students that their parents are in charge. -
Giving Individual Attention
Thayer Learning Center has a 24 hour awake supervision. This means teenagers are constantly interacting with trained Drill Sergeants, Teachers, Family Reps, and Directors who are dedicated to helping each student change negative behaviors. Each individual receives the attention necessary to change poor behavior and reward positive choices. -
Teaching Respect
Drill Sergeants demand respect and hard-work of their cadets. Throughout a teenager’s stay at Thayer Learning Center, Drill Sergeants will help your teenager work their way through a highly structured, multi phased program designed to teach students about real life.During one phase students are put on a mock monetary system and are held responsible for managing their money like an adult. They are required to pay bills, keep a budget, pay fines due to poor behavior, and earn privileges. By doing this, teenagers quickly begin to feel sympathetic towards their parents and the pressures they face everyday. Respect is later earned through understanding and doing.
-
Offering Support
Thayer Learning Center’s mission is to reunite your entire family. To do this the whole family is in need of support. Thayer Learning Center offers parent seminars to help parents before, during, and after the teenager enters Thayer Learning Center. -
And Never Giving Up
Thayer Learning Center was designed to see every student succeed. Typical military schools do not accept students who are not more than willing to be there. At a parent’s request, Thayer Learning Center will take any student that the program is capable of helping. Students can not be expelled for breaking rules or other poor behaviors, like the majority of boarding schools. Thayer Learning Center is different.
