High Top Ranch is a year-round program, allowing students to enroll at any time. The average stay is fourteen to sixteen months, depending on the age of the student, his progress, and family considerations.

When a student attains the goals he and his parents have set behaviorally, academically, and therapeutically, he is ready to go home and enroll in a traditional school setting or transfer to a larger residential school. Parents work closely with therapists and counselors to assure a positive transition.
