Transitional Boarding School
Mountain Springs Preparatory Academy (MSPA) is a transitional boarding school which helps
students graduating from either a residential treatment level of care or wilderness program
(if criteria are met) to prepare for their next step in life. MSPA is not a therapeutic boarding school
but therapy is available from trained professionals in the community who work with MSPA and understand our unique mission and philosophy.
MSPA is focused on helping students acclimate back into society. We utilize a solution-focused model that allows
students the opportunity to make choices (within a safe environment) and assess how much the students have
internalized the skills they have learned in their prior treatment. Rather than using behavioral consequences with the students, our
mentors utilize supportive relationships as the agent for encouraging change.
