Christian Boarding School for Girls
20 Years Helping Troubled Teenage Girls Become Successful Women of God
Now Even More Affordable! We Have Immediate Openings
New Lifehouse Academy is now more affordable for families, with recently reduced tuition for its year-round residential program and school for girls ages 14–17. The program provides a safe, nurturing environment where young women can step away from negative influences and patterns, regain their footing, and begin moving toward a healthier and more purposeful future.
At New Lifehouse Academy, each girl is met where she is—with genuine care, clear expectations, consistent mentorship, and the structure she needs to move forward. Within a supportive residential environment, students are encouraged to rebuild confidence, develop greater self-discipline, strengthen relationships, and rediscover a sense of direction and purpose.
The Academy’s proven, faith-centered approach helps girls recognize the attitudes, choices, and behaviors that may be holding them back and begin replacing them with healthier thinking and positive habits. Each day combines accredited academics with life-skills development, physical activity, recreation, and intentional opportunities for personal and spiritual growth.
Sports and recreation are an important part of the New Lifehouse experience. An active program keeps girls engaged while providing natural opportunities to develop teamwork, perseverance, responsibility, confidence, and healthy ways of responding to challenges. As these lessons become part of everyday life, progress can extend beyond behavior to attitudes, relationships, decision-making, and outlook on the future.
New Lifehouse Academy serves girls experiencing behavioral, emotional, relational, or academic challenges who need more structure and guidance than they are currently receiving. Through a balance of accountability and encouragement, structure and compassion, faith and personal responsibility, girls are given the opportunity to make meaningful changes that can continue long after they return home.
Let us guide your daughter toward spiritual, emotional, and academic success!

IS YOUR DAUGHTER’S LIFE IN A DOWNWARD SPIRAL?
When you begin to see signs that your daughter is heading down a destructive path, it is critical to act quickly. Early intervention—whether through counseling or, when necessary, placement at a structured program like New Lifehouse Academy—can make all the difference between a temporary struggle and a lasting crisis. Waiting too long often closes doors to easier solutions, making more intensive intervention unavoidable. If you are at the point where you know something must change, we are here to help you evaluate the situation and take immediate steps to get your daughter the life-changing support she needs before it is too late.
The program works on a level system. Each level consists of a particular length of time, and each level has different requirements the student will need to fulfill before eligibility to advance to the next level.
Upon entry into the program, each student is assigned an advisor to provide individual one-on-one guidance and mentoring determined by that student’s particular needs. The proven cure for life-controlling problems is based on the embracing of Biblical principles to spiritually improve the quality of her character. Students also meet with the Life Skills Counselor to work through the student’s individual issues through personal learning contracts throughout the duration of the program, as well as in group sessions during the week. The Program Manager oversees each student’s overall needs and works with family, student, and staff to see that restoration is brought to both the student and family.
After 4 weeks in the program, the student will be allowed two ten-minute phone calls, and one twenty- minute phone call each week (days for calls are assigned upon admission into the program). A student will only be allowed to receive from persons on her phone and mail authorization list based on her current level privileges. Phone/mail usage is a privilege and will be monitored by Staff. Students are allowed mail upon entry into the program according to level privileges and authorization list.
Students are allowed a monthly pass. The time of that pass is dependent upon the student’s current level in the program.
Each student is assigned an advisor upon entering the program. All inquiries relating to the student will be handled by her advisor. If you have an immediate question concerning your student, feel free to contact our main office during normal business hours.
Absolutely! And she can get caught up and retake some courses to get a better grade. The students who daily and year-round attend our privately accredited school, Cross Christian Academy, also participate in both personal and group Studies for a New Life. The thoughtful curriculum helps to establish a foundation of biblical knowledge leading to spiritual growth. The faith- structured classes also develop the a major goal of the program: a life-changing, continually growing personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
