The Shelter Rock Academy, a satellite program of Herricks High School, is an environment dedicated to developing individual and community commitment and responsibility. It is a program that values the pursuit of knowledge with a teaching process that emphasizes cooperation and peer learning in an effort to foster respect for self, community, and differing opinions. This program is small in size and provides a structured environment. Attention is given to individual needs and efforts are made to eliminate failure. A wide variety of experiences and hands-on opportunities create a stimulating environment that promotes academic success and life-long learning.
