The children at Edgewood Ranch attend school on campus in an accelerated curriculum that is individualized and integrates positive character traits into their education. It is a goal for the children to return to their former schools and classrooms not just on grade level, but with honesty, respect and integrity.

The majority of students entering Edgewood's school are behind one to three years in at least one subject. Many have mild to moderate learning disabilities which are diagnosed and worked with. A large number of children arrive reading very poorly – if at all. Through the help of a staff reading specialist they increase their skills and comprehension, opening a whole new world to them.

Each new student is thoroughly evaluated and placed in each of five subjects at grade levels appropriate to the child's abilities and past performance. He then works at his own pace in a classroom with an average of ten children per teacher. Where appropriate, a student may work one-on-one with a tutor.

Many children return to school up with or ahead of their peers. It is possible for others to make up certain courses in which they have fallen behind. A child who tests high enough and becomes motivated may do three years academic work in two years, thereby making up a grade which he or she has failed.

This remarkable educational experience does more than just help the children academically to achieve their appropriate grade level and work toward their academic potential. It also increases their self-image and helps their parents see them and their abilities in a more positive perspective.
