Asheville Academy is an NC therapeutic boarding school that treats young girls, ages 10 to 14. Campus is nestled in the serene, ancient mountains of North Carolina. The mountains evoke a sense of comfort and security; which is exactly why Asheville Academy chose to settle in this location. Struggling girls have enough distractions in their own heads, the least a therapeutic boarding school can do is give them a tranquil setting to work out their issues. Having campus removed from the outside world’s confusion allows each student to focus on moving toward her full potential.
