Robert Land Academy

” Please educate yourself on the harm of the troubled teen industry (and other similar industries) before sending your child here. Do you want your child to possibly face abuse, humiliation, degradation, and many other toxic things that have been reported? No? Then please, don’t send your kids here. “

” was sent to this school for about 3 years (2020-2022) while i didnt have the worst or best experience, %90 of the things i remember are the negative things that happened to me and my friends. they were to strict for the type of person i am. the pressure still kind of scars me today. i hated to see my friends be hurt as well. sometimes i would do things im not proud of and i still regret those thing to date. i deeply suggest doing more research before sending anyone there. “

” Robertland (RLA) is offering an environment for boys to excel academically and personally while teaching values needed to succeed in life – discipline, self-care, leadership. A unique military themed school for boys with a very balanced responsive leadership team and teaching staff and an environment where all parents can feel proud of their son’s achievements. It has changed our son’s trajectory to one that’s more positive, disciplined and with more purpose on what he wants to achieve in life. Mostly, it’s taught him that being diagnosed with ADHD is just a diagnosis and that fresh air, no electronics, plenty of exercise, healthy food and a disciplined approach to academics allow him to excel in anything he commits to. Public school suggested he do applied courses – he has not! He has managed to improve significantly doing academic courses at RLA and now understands that there is no magic – hard work and studying are the key to improving academic outcomes. Life is not without challenges so of course there were some challenges along the way but these were managed very effectively by RLA senior staff. Moreover, on any encounter with the school and its staff – it’s clear that they knew our son and were rooting for him to succeed. He was not a statistic. School events instilled a parent with pride watching the careful coordination in military styled parades and meticulously assembled boys in uniform. After two years we are very grateful we made the decision to send our son to RLA. It certainly exceeded our expectations. “

” I cannot recommend Robert Land Academy enough. If any of the following resonates with you, please consider RLA for your son. We enrolled my nephew at RLA last November for grade 7 and quickly saw remarkable results that we thought impossible given his academic history. Before RLA, we had tried various programs, specialty schools, and professional help, but the outcomes only worsened. RLA was our last hope as it was clear his previous school had thought him a lost cause. During the RLA interview, we stated our goal for the year: if he could write a proper sentence by hand, we would be satisfied. He achieved this within the first month and continued to surpass our expectations. By year-end, he earned passing grades in all subjects, some in the mid to high 70s—something I honestly didn’t believe possible. Beyond academics, we noticed smaller, essential changes. We saw pride when he looked at the dress shirt he ironed by himself, confidence when talking about his friends, and excitement of surprising his classmates with the cool project poster he worked on during leave. These subtle improvements in his confidence and self-worth make his time at RLA worthwhile, and are likely to stick with him into adulthood. I genuinely believe RLA’s methods have sparked my nephew’s incredible growth. The highly structured environment, small classes focusing on student’s strengths/weaknesses, replacing electronics with fun engaging activities have worked wonders. Most importantly, RLA teach students that certain behaviours are unacceptable though reasonable consequence, while also providing positive reinforcement though various perks and overall encouragement. While the push-ups were frequent, and likely will be this coming year, I am filled with hope that my nephew will continue to improve, grow, and face new challenges. For the very first time, I feel hopeful about his future, and I can’t wait to see what grade 8 has in store for him. “

” An amazing environment for young men aimed at challenging their limits and unlocking their full potential. To achieve these successes, the Academy takes the best practices of military culture and combines it with a supportive environment and personalized attention. The education receive is well rounded, not merely academic, but social and emotional as well. Cadets learn the ever so important soft skills so lacking in the workplace today. Leadership, work ethic, time management, teamwork, resiliency, accountability, communication, and problem solving are but a few of the many traits that are nurtured at the Academy, which, when combined with their “Academic” education will provide them with a future full of opportunity. I was a student some years ago and it literally changed the course of my life. It can for you to! “
