Stage Front For
Boulder Creek Academy Students

It's opening night for a number of Boulder Creek Academy students who have spent the past couple of months working alongside the Bonners Ferry High School Performing Arts Department in preparation for the theatrical performance of Clue, a stage adaptation of the cult movie classic.

One of our students has the lead role as Wadsworth the Butler. Another will be playing Colonel Mustard. The performance will run for three evenings. Each evening there will be a different ending with a surprise whodunnit.

"It has been a lot of fun. At a recent dress rehearsal we all forgot our lines and started to improv. It was hilarious," explained one student.

Numerous students and staff will be in attendance at the closing performance and to cheer for their fellow Boulder Creek Academy classmates at their final curtain call.

Boulder Creek Academy has spent two-decades focused on meeting the unique needs of adolescents ages 13 to 18 that are struggling with social cognitive deficits, communication deficiencies, executive function issues, non-verbal learning disorders, anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. The therapeutic boarding school features a state-approved special education program and students benefit from a curriculum that integrates academic and therapeutic learning with adventure activities, leadership, and service learning opportunities. Moreover, students receive fundamental skill building services including phonemic awareness development, passage comprehension, operational and problem solving, and more. The campus is situated on 180-acres at the base of the Cabinet Mountains in northern Idaho. Students are accepted for enrollment year-round.
