Good experience for my family. Sedona was a safe place to get help for our daughter and get her out of the dangerous lifestyle she got into at school. Therapy and academics were good, and she excelled academically in that environment and away from public school and all that goes with that. We chose Sedona because it was all girls and small enough to have more one-on-one attention than other places we visited. Overall, it was good.
