Our number one goal at Coral Reef Academy is to help students succeed.

During their time at Coral Reef Academy they will help us define exactly what “success” means to them on an individual basis. Over the years our students have taught us that the most successful method for helping young people make the changes necessary for success is encouraging other youth with similar life experiences to work together in finding new ways to make positive decisions and choices. That’s what we call a Positive Peer Culture.
The Positive Peer Culture at Coral Reef Academy involves our students positively interacting in one another’s daily decision making. Culture can be viewed as beliefs and values, the way we do things, our standards and our pattern of thinking, behaving and communicating. Staff members who oversee students have extensive background in youth development and spend many hours working with the students on an individual and group basis. Working through advancement levels students begin to understand how their actions affect their ability to interact in society.  As they progress through the levels of the program going from a highly structured environment to a less structured environment, they begin to adapt to changing situations similar to what they will encounter when they leave the Coral Reef Academy.

Each student participates in the following services and activities to teach life skills and continue students' clinical and academic work:

  • Positive peer culture
  • Community service
  • Conflict resolution
  • Positive communication
  • Anger management
  • Moral reasoning
  • Accountability
  • Planning and decision making
  • Housekeeping
  • Meal preparation
