We gather feedback from parents to assess Asheville Academy and drive improvement. The data presented here is based on parent surveys.
At Asheville Academy, we evaluate student and family progress through daily living, emotional and behavioral development, therapy sessions, and their individualized treatment plans. We also utilize clinical questionnaires completed by students at the beginning and end of their program.
We use the following assessment tools:
- Youth Outcomes Questionnaire Self Report 2.0: Identifies areas requiring attention and informs the Master Treatment Plan in domains such as interpersonal distress, somatic symptoms, interpersonal relations, social problems, behavioral dysfunction, and critical incidents.
- Executive Skills Questionnaire: Assesses areas of executive functioning skills that require improvement.
- Resiliency Protective Factors Checklist: Highlights existing strengths and allows students to choose areas for further development within themselves, their family, and their community.
- UCLA Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder Reaction Index: Used for students with identified or suspected trauma to determine which symptoms require clinical attention.

Here's What Students Gain From Their Time With Us

Restored Academic Confidence
During their time with us, students take part in a small, supportive classroom environment that encourages confidence and success in the classroom by catering to the individualized learning style of each student.

Rebuilt Relationships
Girls build social skills, restore family relationships, establish healthy boundaries with technology and social media, develop stronger communication skills, and envision success in relationships.

Renewed Hope
Parents see a brighter future as their children learn how to overcome academic, social and emotional challenges, set and reach goals, and create a world filled with friendship, laughter, and positive experiences.

Improved Resilience
In our supportive, nurturing environment students learn to advocate for their needs, recover and overcome from setbacks, and build impulse control as they become more mature and resilient.

Instilled Self-Belief
Students build their confidence through incremental progress, positive psychology which reminds them of their strengths, and activities that allow students to challenge themselves in a safe environment.

Developed Thoughtfulness
Your child will become more aware of the thoughts and feelings of others, and develop genuine thankfulness through service work, community work, equine assisted therapy, reflection, and goal-setting.
