Montana Academy (Founded in 1997[1]) was a small coeducational therapeutic boarding school in Marion, Montana with behavioral modification and academic programs.[2] The school is for students age 14–19 (high school) and enrollment is generally around 30 students. They claim to combine clinicians, a therapeutic program, and a challenging prep school.[2] In 2019, Montana Academy came under scrutiny due to a student death and was profiled as part of a media investigation into the lack of oversight at Montana boarding schools.[3]
Montana Academy closed in 2021 and Embark Behavioral Health now runs a residential treatment center there.[4]
