An Open Letter to International Educators
By Stephen C. Schultz
Please allow me to share an experience I had at the International ICEF Conference in Montreal last year. I was speaking with an educator from Canada and she mentioned to me;
“I wish I had known about your services last year. I had a student from China who struggled with an eating disorder. We did all we could to assist her, but she was eventually sent back to China. She was embarrassed, her parents were embarrassed, it was not a good outcome for this girl or her family. Is this the type of student you can help?”
I said, “Absolutely!”
Please feel free to review the below links to learn more about Discovery Academy for teenagers and our short term Medicine Wheel program for young adults age 18-25.
I have been asked by educators, consultants and agents alike how we might work together. My hope is that we can be seen as a resource when you have a student that needs this level of assistance. We can be a solution focused option for the student and their parents.
I hope you find this information helpful. Too often students who struggle because of emotional concerns get discouraged and drop out of school. There is an option for these students and their families to have an international boarding school experience without the failure so often associated with the burden of emotional concerns.

Students enter our very specialized academic services through two methods. They come to us on referral from schools or they are recommended by Educational Consultants. The students are generally struggling with academics due to depression, substance use, eating disorders or sexual concerns of abuse, trauma or addiction.
