The Maryhaven School

  • The Columbus City School District Board of Education provides educational services to the adolescent clients. The Board of Education has provided Maryhaven with two teachers who are licensed to teach students at the middle and/or high school level, and who are highly qualified according to the Ohio Department of Education Standards. These teachers will address the educational and social/emotional needs of students in eighth through twelfth grade. They will also provide special education services aligned with the students’ Individualized Education Programs (IEPs).

  • Another option that is offered to our clients is GED preparation. Any client that is eligible, and wants to take the GED Practice test is connected with a Title One tutor from the Columbus City School system. These tutors utilize GED books and pretest materials to assist with preparing the GED clients for the Practice test. The GED Practice test is administered once each month and the test is free. By passing the Practice test students earn a fee waiver to take the Actual GED test for free as well.

We focus on providing a safe therapeutic environment for each Adolescent and remain attentive to trust placed on us by the patient, the family and the community.  With this in mind both inpatient units offer specific security measures:

  • 24-hours a-day monitoring by treatment professional

  • secure units
  • on site security personnel
