All Boys Boarding School for Behavior Modification

Our students are great kids with very real challenges. By the time boys reach Cherokee Creek, family relationships are often strained and the home environment may be in chaos. Many of our students are unaware, unwilling or incapable of recognizing the negative impact that their actions have on themselves, their families and those around them.

Our students will begin a new journey at CCBS and will continue their journey with expanded insight and new tools as they graduate and return home.

Our students come to us with many challenges including, but not limited to…

"The dream begins, most of the time,
with a teacher who believes in you,
who tugs and pushes and leads you on to
the next plateau, sometimes poking you
with a sharp stick called truth."
