Allred Joins
Mountain Springs Preparatory Academy

Mountain Springs Preparatory Academy is excited to announce the expansion of our administrative team at the school, adding Greg Allred as an additional Dean of Students. Greg joins Ariel Rhoades, who will continue as the other Dean of Students at Mountain Springs. Jon Larsen, Head of School at Mountain Springs commented: "We are very excited for Greg to take on this new role. This addition allows us to provide more service and support to our students and parents at Mountain Springs. The Dean of Students are integral at Mountain Springs. They are responsible for meeting with students weekly to review their MAPP plan goals and work on life skills; they update parents and educational consultants on a regular basis; and they are the link between the school and the students' therapist. Adding a second Dean of Students allows us to offer even more of the individualized care and attention our families have come to expect from our school."

Greg was born in New Zealand and raised in Utah. He graduated from Southern Utah University with a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology and is currently working on a Master's Degree in Professional Counseling. Greg has worked for many years with adolescents in both wilderness and outpatient programs. During Greg's 3 years at Mountain Springs, he has worked in several different capacities at the school: as a mentor, weekend team leader, Staff Director and now Dean of Students. Since August 2003, Greg has also been working as an adjunct professor in the Physical Education Department at Southern Utah University as a Scuba Instructor.
