Admission Information

The High Frontier's admission process is individualized and operates on an on-going basis. Each student’s information packet is team-reviewed to determine whether we can provide appropriate services to meet the student’s needs. We carefully review psychosocial history, problem behaviors, strengths, diagnoses, psychological and educational records and assessments to determine whether we are the appropriate placement for each student. We also encourage a tour by the family prior to placement, if possible.
 

The essential question we must ask and answer for admission is whether our group-oriented treatment milieu is appropriate for the student, based on the information we have available at the time of admission. To answer this question we must determine whether the student has the ability and temperament to communicate, function and change within a group-oriented environment.

The High Frontier charges $6,000 per month for families paying directly for services. Our monthly rate includes all in-house costs related to treatment, room and board, and all activities. The only additional charges that may be billed are for outside psychological or academic assessment and evaluation (needed in relatively few cases), and parental requests for transportation to or from the Midland or El Paso airports as staff availability permits.
