My son started Mtn. States in 8th grade. He started doing poorly in school and was becoming very angry. I believe it had to do with the fact his dad had not contacted him in a couple of years. He was not responsive to his son's plea for time and a developing relationship. We were told about MSCH through a friend. They took the intake and my son was off a month later. There, he had a house mom and dad, was given responsibilities, got involved with the youth group. They place the children in levels of achievement, i.e. Level 1,2,3 and 4 which forces the children to take responsibility for themselves. My son is now happy, responsible, and after 8th and 9th grade is coming home for 10th grade. I am so thankful to the wonderful staff at MSCH as well as to Longmont Church of Christ for helping straighten my son and others who are experiencing youth on the wrong path.

Rude office staff. People in charge take vacations at the same time! Unorganized. Poor management. Very tight lipped about the people who work there. Do they have something to hide? Won't return calls. Not very friendly people.
