Brett Cary at RMA Writes in Rocky
Mountain Times
Brett Carey, a teacher/counselor
at Rocky Mountain Academy in North Idaho, wrote in the students' Rocky
Mountain Times: "When people arrive here they are trapped inside the
walls they have built to protect themselves. Walls to keep other people
out. Walls to stay alone. Walls to ensure that 'no one can take what
I have.' Walls to defend 'my stuff,' even if 'my stuff' is bad stuff.
People have physical walls that keep them from being touched or hugged.
They have walls that won't allow them to smoosh. Walls that prevent
them from saying or hearing 'I love you." I loved watching the news
when the [Berlin] Wall came down last year. I saw tears of joy and new
prospects of hope. But my greatest pleasure has been watching the walls
crumbling down here at RMA."
Pine Meadows School Students
Catching Big Trout
Pine Meadows School, straddling
Clear Creek, a little up-stream from the old gold mining town of French
Gulch, California, reports the students have been catching trout up
to 16 inches long from the creek.
Heritage Treatment Center Graduation
Brings Several Changes
Heritage Treatment Center, in
Provo, Utah, graduated five students on June 27th. With this graduation,
they started initiating several changes in their program. The boys in
the program moved down the hill to the main part of the campus so the
school will not be spread out so much. Also their optimum size will
now be a little under 100 to be able to provide better service with
their attachment model.
