About Their World And Themselves Young people who suffer from problems of chemical dependencies, behavioral health problems and victimization need special care to grow to be responsible, productive adults. Hampton Academy, a subsidiary of Hampton Behavioral Health Center, is a private day school where emotionally disturbed young people can reach their greatest potential. A Program That Reaches Young People Hampton's unique behavioral management system helps to promote social and academic skills. This is made possible by certified teachers and staff members who are experts in working with young people. Our program includes art therapy, counseling, behavioral health consultation, family and group therapy.
Students also learn health and employment orientation.
They may select elective courses that match their evolving interests. Recent electives have included courses in art, cooking, sewing, cosmetology, weight lifting and drivers education. There is also a work-study option for high school seniors. To help cultivate the students' diverse interests, we encourage them to participate in clubs and extracurricular activities, including interscholastic events in their resident districts. In addition to classroom activities, we host field trips and other community-based programs.
