EDUCATION  Harborcreek Youth Services' educational program is licensed under the
Pennsylvania Department of Education, Private Residential Rehabilitative
Institutions (PRRI). We maintain a
specialized educational facility on campus, staffed by Pennsylvania-certified
teachers. Working in cooperation with the Northwest Tri-County
Intermediate Unit and local area school districts, Harborcreek Youth
Services has developed a highly structured, individualized, and adaptive
educational program that is designed to meet each student's needs.The curriculum and all related activities create a stable, consistent, and supportive learning environment that facilitates our clients' academic success. The curriculum includes math, language arts, reading, science, social studies, physical education, health, and transitional living. Students also participate in community service learning projects. Harborcreek Youth Services offers a GED Program to older clients and those with limited success in traditional academic settings. The course of instruction includes remedial and consumer education and life skills training. The Work Experience Program (WEP) is available to all clients who are high school graduates or enrolled in the GED Program. WEP encourages our clients to develop a work ethic and occupational experience in a real work environment.
