Our Results Speak for Themselves:
Wright School is a program that works!
A research study, completed in collaboration with Duke University and published in 2006, shows that Wright School’s treatment program DOES make a difference for children with challenging and troubling behaviors— behaviors that parents, schools and communities describe as dangerous, oppositional, aggressive, volatile, unmanageable…and which have historically proved resistant to other treatments and interventions.
Findings from parents’ ratings of almost 100 children who completed our program showed:
1. Substantial and significant decreases in problem behaviors such as aggression2. Substantial improvements in child personal strengths such as positive school and academic behaviors and emotional well being
3. Parent ratings of improvements in child problem behaviors that continued at least months past the children’s treatment stay.
