What Makes Our School Unique?

  • Focused one-on-one counseling and mentoring
  • Small enrollment means more attention on each boy
  • Struggling boys sheltered from negative influences/peers
  • A beautiful rural agrarian setting
  • A back-to-basics ranch lifestyle
  • Christian in name and practice
  • Lower cost than most therapeutic schools

Ranch Lifestyle

Your son will milk cows, feed calves, raise chickens and turkeys, collect eggs, feed pigs and goats, ride horses and tractors, and love every minute of it. The boys in our boys home tend their own garden plot and learn all about organic farming and taking care and responsibility for animals on the ranch. This agrarian lifestyle teaches responsibility, trust, and teamwork, and gives focus on God and His creation.

Program Structure

RUNNYMEDE SCHOOL, located in Walnut Grove, Missouri,  is a lower cost, short or long-term therapeutic Christian school with personalized mentoring and a working farm experience for boys age 9-16.

Our goal is to provide prevention and early intervention for young boys who have had some behavior troubles to help change their motivations such that they’ll reach their full potential to become well-rounded and productive young men.

We offer a unique therapeutic environment where every experience is educational, therapeutic and fun. We are dedicated to providing outstanding services to students and their families through either short-term or long-term stays with us.  Call us now!

Our Threefold Goal:

  1. To increase faith by
    • • teaching the importance of the church and worship
    • • teaching sound doctrine
    • • teaching and modeling repentance and forgiveness
  2. To build a work ethic by
    • • providing work opportunities and experience
    • • persevering academically
    • • teaching stewardship
  3. To build maturity by
    • • teaching biblical masculinity
    • • teaching respect and care for women and children
    • • restoring broken relationships

Our Statement of Faith

We believe:

  • • The Bible is the only inspired, inerrant, authoritative and sufficient Word of God consisting of the sixty-six books of the Old and New Testaments;
  • • There is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit;
  • • In the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, His sinless life, His miracles, His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, His bodily resurrection, His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and His personal return in power and glory;
  • • That for the salvation of lost and sinful man, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential;
  • • That a person becomes justified by grace through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ;
  • • In the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life;
  • • In the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; those who are saved unto the resurrection of life, and those who are lost unto the resurrection of damnation;
  • • In the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ and His church;
  • • In the importance and vital role the local church plays in the lives of all believers.
