Vision Boys Academy

The Vision Boys Academy is a small therapeutic Christian boarding school located in Missouri to help young men ages 8-12.

Vision Boy’s Academy is a small school that allows for much more affordable tuition than most boarding schools. Also, being a smaller school allows staff to work one-on-one with their students. Smaller schools are not a great fit for everyone, but, some boys can greatly benefit from being in a smaller, more personal program.

Boys at Vision Boys Academy enjoy outdoor activities on our 27-acre campus that includes a fishing pond, basketball court, and weight-lifting area. Boys live in a comfortable dorm, able to house 12-15 boys in a safe, caring environment monitored by staff 24/7. Students and staff enjoy healthy meals together every day in our family-style cafeteria. Boys attend classes, Monday through Friday, in our newly updated schoolhouse. Vision staff and their families also live on-campus in housing that is attached to the school.

With a heart for adopted boys, Vision Boys Academy’s Director, Shawn Parker earned his BS degree from Oklahoma Baptist College. As an ordained Baptist minister, he provides Bible-based counseling to each boy as they interact daily on-site. He also keeps parents up to date on their son’s progress with a personal phone call every other week.

With the rapid changes in today’s society, it is becoming more difficult to live a clean, godly life. Technology has opened up many doors of entertainment that are easily accessible and for many young people, the lines have become blurred on what is right and wrong.

At the Vision Boys Academy, students will have the opportunity to focus on what’s important in life and receive caring training in becoming godly young men. Vision Boys Academy believes if your son can learn to confront his problems, whether it’s bitterness, anger, laziness, or disrespect, then they can learn to change these areas of their life.

Vision Boy’s Academy believes a program of consistent daily living can help your son learn to make the right decisions that lead to lasting change and a more fulfilled life. Some boys just simply need to learn the love of Christ. Some need a more concentrated effort on getting caught up in school. Some need to learn the importance of respecting others and themselves. Some just need a change of environment.

Whatever your needs may be, please give us a call, so we can discuss if our program is a good fit for your son. We are here to help!
