Eagle Ranch Academy is a residential education program for struggling teens, ages 12-17 established in 1995. Some of the typical behaviors of the residents of ERA may have difficulties in school, are verbally abusive, have trouble with authority figures, are maintaining negative peer relationships, are depressed and withdrawn, and are involved with drugs and alcohol. The average length of stay to complete the program is 6 - 10 months.
Eagle Ranch Academy was founded by the Arslanian brothers; long time successful college and professional football coaches using their trade marked "Life Skills Coaching" to help young people develop values, tools, and skills for successful living. Paul Arslanian is the Executive Director and runs the day-to-day operations along with hands on teaching and mentoring of the Students. Dave Arslanian is the Director of Admissions & Placement and is closely involved with the Parents and Students as they progress through the program and beyond.
Eagle Ranch Academy is licensed by the State of Utah as a Residential Treatment Program. ERA uses a Virtual High School that is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools. The program staff provides intensive therapy, fitness and nutrition training, life skills, and self-introspection as part of the program. Three components of the program are unique to ERA, which are the emotional growth seminars, graduation workshops, and an aftercare program to provide long-term growth for Students, Parents, and family members.
The Residential School Campus is located on 2½ acres in St. George, Utah. The campus includes 17,000 square feet of building facilities with administrative offices to include the counseling offices, medical offices, cafeteria, and a school with a computer lab. Three separate cottages house the students. The students have access to a 500-acre working Ranch located 35 minutes west of St. George for special projects and activities.
