    Places for Struggling Teens™ Published by Woodbury Reports, Inc.™ “It is more important to get it right, than to get it first.” May 2009 - Issue #177 NORTHWEST GET-TOGETHER IS UNIQUE By: Lon Woodbury We are striving to make the upcoming Get-Together on May 15 as unique as the previous three have been. The goal is to emphasize networking and socializing time in a fairly small, informal and interactive setting among everybody who is interested in the network of private, parent choice schools, programs and services, Yes, there will be interesting and valuable presentations, but that is only part of the program. Of at least equal importance is the chance to visit with old friends and make news ones. Those of us who work in this network frequently attend conferences, primarily the IECA and NATSAP conferences. They are invaluable and enjoyable. However, they are usually in expensive hotels or conference centers in cities, and there is a frantic pace from the large numbers attending and being packed with presentations. Each conference is developed around one type of professional (The IECA focuses on the needs of Educational Consultants, NATSAP for school administrative staff….). Frequently, an attendee must choose between whether to have that needed and long-awaited conversation with a colleague or to attend a breakout session occurring at the same time with information important for the attendee’s job. Or, they sometimes take advantage of exploring or shopping in the nearby area. At the NorthWest Get-Together, we are consciously trying to break out of these patterns. The concept was inspired by a meeting called years ago by Rob Spear, then President of the CEDU schools.

    Places for Struggling Teens™ Published by Woodbury Reports, Inc.™ “It is more important to get it right, than to get it first.” June 2010 - Issue #190 THE HEALING OUTDOORS By: Lon Woodbury The therapeutic value of wilderness is well documented. The popularity of wilderness therapy programs has been reported in my newsletter at www.strugglingteens.com for years. For example, Dr. Keith Russell has done extensive research that shows the positive impact of wilderness therapy. Recently I ran across a couple of additional studies showing how wilderness therapy reduces the risk of homelessness among the young and is key in helping disordered eating problems. The studies showing the positive impacts of wilderness just keep piling up. Many wilderness professionals have told me that although the therapy is important, the most important healing element continues to be the wilderness, which of course includes a lot of physical exercise and fresh air found only in the outdoors. However, it seems deeper than that. A recent poll of public elementary school principals conducted by Gallup and reported by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation had, as one of its findings, that “the most unexpected opportunity to boost learning lies outside the classroom: on the playground at recess.” The “principals overwhelmingly believe recess has a positive impact not only on the development of students’ social skills, but also on achievement and learning in the classroom.” It seems research is confirming the intuitive sense that just being outdoors is uplifting and helpful in many ways. Visits to national and state parks remain high, and activities that take people outdoors remain popular, such as camping, hiking, biking, skiing, fishing and many other sports.

The story behind the academy’s closure. By Keith Chu / The Bulletin Published: November 15. 2009 4:00AM PST An era ended when Mount Bachelor Academy closed Nov. 3, following allegations of child abuse by the state Department of Human Services. The private school for troubled teens, located 26 miles east of Prineville, was one of the last of its kind — a school whose methods originated in the Synanon self-help group, which was widely considered a cult by the late 1970s. It’s also a school that counts hundreds, if not thousands, Rob Kerr / The Bulletin file photo of devoted graduates and parents who swear that Mount The academy’s better days ...

    Places for Struggling Teens™ Published by Woodbury Reports, Inc.™ “It is more important to get it right, than to get it first.” January 2010 - Issue #185 JEFFREY M. GEORGI, CAFETY AND THE ADOLESCENT BRAIN By Lon Woodbury The highlight of the recent Independent Educational Consultants Association (IECA) conference in Charlotte, NC, was a three hour presentation on Saturday morning November 14, 2009, by Jeffrey M. Georgi on the Adolescent Brain. Georgi is the Clinical Director of the Duke University Addictions Program, an author and a popular speaker. The ballroom was full, which is remarkable considering it was on a Saturday morning after a long and exhausting conference. The wide attendance was a powerful testimony to his expertise and knowledge of the subject. The attendees were not disappointed, and many remarked to me how much they had learned from the presentation. A major emphasis, since he was speaking to a group of professional educators, was outlining the development of the brains of adolescents. A major point was that a person’s brain was not fully developed until a person is into his/her twenties. This conclusion from exhaustive research tells us that many of the impulsive, silly and self-destructive decisions adolescents make are because their brains are not yet fully developed. Their forebrain is not developed enough to put a check on impulsive behaviors. In a sense, when an adolescent does something dumb, it’s because their brain has not developed enough to think through the consequences. “If it feels good, do it” seems to be the mantra for the adolescent brain.
