Karen Lee, Founder, President and CEO of The Pinnacle Schools, is a featured guest on a patriotic program launched by William Shatner called “Moving America Forward.”
Ms. Lee was selected as a result of her entrepreneurship in founding a residential adolescent treatment program that is short-term, yet provides a full academic curriculum in addition to meeting the medical and therapeutic needs of troubled teens. The program was recognized in 2011 by Inc. 5000 as one of the fastest growing private companies in the United States.

Education is essential — TPS academic programs.
We believe "no child left behind" also applies to teen residential treatment programs. The Pinnacle Schools pioneered the use of year-round individualized academics in the short-term residential setting. Because of our flexible length of stay, students can complete a quarter, semester or full academic year. Continued medical and psychological therapies, along with education, ensure long term success.
Our Academic Administrator works closely with parents, students and counselors to design an individualized program of study that best supports each student's specific goals. Our academic program is designed to support students in grades 6-12 therapeutically by providing a safe learning environment in which their self-esteem is positively impacted by success in school.
