Formal Education
Tool #1: Education
Integrity House holds a provisional accreditation as a Special Purpose
School by the Commission on Schools of the Northwest Association of
Accredited Schools. This school is recognized for promoting and
maintaining a well-balanced education program and for meeting or exceeding
standards considered essential for quality education. Integrity
House is a member of the Better Business Bureau.
Through a complete educational process that combines both "Formal
Academics" and "Life Skills" education each child learns the tools
necessary to live a successful and fulfilling life. They learn to take
pride in their accomplishments and they learn to work with others in home,
workplace, classroom and community settings.
Formal Academics
During the orientation period of the child's stay they will be assessed
and assigned an IAP (Individual Academic Plan). Each child's IAP is
tailored to their specific needs. Assessment includes review of school
records, therapeutic assessments, personal interviews and input from
parents and family counselors. The student's educational and career goals
are taken into consideration where appropriate.
 A state accredited teacher is assigned to work
one-on-one with the child to accomplish the goals set out in their IAP.
Course completion is based on mastery of course objectives rather than
"seat time". By working with the teacher in a one-on-one setting the
student is able to "make up for lost time" due to lack of performance in
their prior academic setting and students are able to graduate and attend
local formal graduation ceremonies receiving their High
School Diploma. Curriculum includes Science, Mathematics, Social Studies,
Language Arts, as well as a variety of other core and elective course
subjects. Because we utilize a one-on-one student/teacher setting, each
child can begin their course studies immediately upon enrollment in our
program.
Life Skills
| 
Learning Life Skills and developing a healthy
work ethic is vital to the child's progress in the program as well
as being necessary for the child to be successful later in Life. As
part of their Life Skills education each child is given instruction
in many areas.
