graduate from the Eagle Ranch program and return home. During the summer, a new group of children arrive at the Ranch with a fresh set of issuesgirls and boys in pain who are about to take the rst steps of their own journey toward restoration. It is the way it should be, but Im always struck by the contrast between the rawness of the emotions of the children arriving at the Ranch and the healing that has taken place for our recent graduates. I have so much respect for our front line staff who have made the decision to step into these childrens pain. This is really counterintuitive, as our natural reaction is to avoid messy situations and people who are struggling. But these Eagle Ranch staff members have chosen a vocational path that is just the opposite. The fruit of their labor is evident not just at the Ranch, but will also be realized in generations to come as our children replace their painful past issues with hope and healed relationships. Thank you for investing in our childrens journey at Eagle Ranch. Gods blessings to you and your family. Reflections Sincerely, Edwin J.

School to Making the Grade The Eagle Ranch Grade Level Transition Program provides students who have failed the sixth or seventh grade during the previous year an opportunity to advance to the next grade level after the rst 9 weeks of the following school year. Erick, 14, didnt like school. It was boring to him, and he didnt care that he was failing. His attitude changed when he arrived at Eagle Ranch School. I like that I get a lot more help here, he said. Students must take the initiative to be accepted into the program by completing an application and getting it signed by their parent or guardian. They also must meet weekly to review goals and progress with Director of Education and School Principal Jon DeWaal. Students are required to maintain a grade level average based on their abilities. At the end of the rst 9 weeks of the school year, those students who maintain the required averages in all academic classes will be immediately promoted to the next grade level for the remainder of the year. Erick seems up to the challenge. If I see Im failing anything, Im going to work hard to bring it up. I should get to 8th grade soon. For boys and girls in crisis, starting school can bring apprehension and fear. Pressure can be felt as social and academic worlds collide. The year at Eagle Ranch School is off to a positive start thanks to initiatives designed to put students at ease and build condence. Recognizing Accomplishments Handwritten note cards are some of the most appreciated additions to the school. Teachers write notes to students who they notice are working hard or have made personal accomplishments. The kids put these in their binders and hang them on the shelves where they store their backpacks and books. Some take them home and put them on the bulletin boards in their bedrooms, Principal DeWaal noted. Perhaps even more excited are parents who also receive notes from the school. Good News from Eagle Ranch School is printed boldly on the outside of the card. Ive heard from many families that these notes are the rst time theyve received anything positive from their childs school. I like that I get a lot more help here.

Eagle anch School provides a terapeuticlearnin environment tat builds student confidenceand skil. In the early days of the school year, Mindy Burch, the science parapro at Eagle Ranch School, met a student named Rylie. A shy 7th grader, Rylie never made eye contact and never volunteered answers in class. She was so closed off even her posture was a little stooped, Mindy recalled. Then Rylie walked into Mindys special exploratory class on sewing. The two worked closely together to make a pillow, and as the class progressed, Mindy noticed a new Rylie. By the end of the rst class, she seemed like a different person. She looked me in the eye for the rst time and said, This is so cool! She had a huge smile on her face. Since then, Rylie has also made a pillow case and draw- string backpack. Now Rylie walks into class with a new air of condence, seeming a little bit taller each day.

Last year I saw how much it affected my grades. I want to try to keep my grades up this year. We have smaller classes so I can concentrate better, and we have one on one time with teachers. Oscar 15 The Peace Home Through the Eye of a Needle By the end of the rst class, she seemed like a different person. She looked me in the eye for the rst time. School was rough. I wasnt going to class or doing the work. At the Ranch, I didnt really have a choice. So I started doing my homework, and I started catching up. The most improved student award was given to me last year, and my family was really proud. Parker 14 The Peace Home Michelle 15 The Praise Home
Sometimes a teacher has to nd any opening
they can to get through to a student. In one case, that opening was as small as the eye of a needle.

The Whitcomb Family Equine Center
May 17, 2014, marked the opening of Eagle Ranchs equine facility, The Whitcomb Family Equine Center. The new home for our equine therapy program features 6 stalls, a wash stall, tack room, feed room, offce and storage room, as well as a small covered arena. The previous structure, a modifed cattle barn, had a narrow center aisle and lacked much-needed storage space. A larger aisle in the new barn makes ground work with the horses safer for the children, and the tack room allows the horses tack to be kept in the barn, rather than across the street where it was previously stored. The covered arena gives children the ability to continue with equine therapy during inclement weather. gives children a chance to build trust in others and develop leadership skills. Equine terap equine therapy gives children a chance to build trust in others and develop leadership skill s The Eagle Ranch Honor and Memorial Gift Program Honor and Memorial gifts provide an opportunity to recognize a special person in your life in a meaningful way.

Regardless of what kind of trouble I was getting into, he was a steady friend and just wanted to help. That steady presence had a lasting inuence. The struggling teen ended up graduating from Auburn, becoming a YoungLife leader, and working for a prominent bank. It was during that time in the late 1980s that Kevin rst heard about Eagle Ranch. A co-worker introduced me to the Ranch, and then I met Eddie and Kayanne, who went to the same church as me and my wife, Hope. Kevin and Hope began to support Eagle Ranch early on, and the more they learned about the program, the more they wanted to support it. The Ranch speaks into a childs life during a moment of crisis, and that touched both my wife and I, said Kevin. I thought about the sacrice that people like the Eagle Ranch houseparents make to care for struggling kids. For nearly 20 years, Kevin and Hope Stipe have given to Eagle Ranch on a monthly basis. Its a small sacrice for us. Charities like Eagle Ranch need regular, consistent funding. Its not like we give a lot, but we understand steady funds are useful. Eagle Ranch receives funding for nearly 50 percent of its annual budget during the months of November and December. Recurring gifts contribute greatly to the Ranchs ability to operate throughout the rest of the year. Donors may choose monthly, bi-monthly, quarterly or other convenient donation intervals.
