Welcome to Elan School
Dear Parents of a Troubled Teen:
The Elan School is very aware of how lonely and confused you must feel as you struggle with your child's future. If you are like the parents of most of our students, you are faced with a troubled teen whose behavior is out of control, and you don't know why. A troubled teen who has been given everything and is throwing it away is difficult to understand, but you can see that this process is progressive. The most saddening part is knowing that your troubled teen is ruining his or her future with poor decisions. Your own pain is difficult, the pain you feel for your child is unbearable. By coming to Elan, you have found a unique Special Purpose Residential Private School. Elan School cannot offer you a miracle fix for your troubled teen, but we can offer you hope. Your journey to this point has been a painful struggle with a troubled teenager. Elan School strives to change the course of your child's life.
