Academics
Main Place Youth is one of the very few, if not the only Teen Challenge residential home to utilize the local public schools to educate our girls. Main Place Youth is providentially located very near to the Kingman High School and Kingman Middle School campuses. Our girls receive an excellent education in our public schools. MPY staff members enjoy a close association with Kingman High School administration and faculty. The excellent faculty and administration at Kingman High School make a very great contribution to the lives of our girls. Both Main Place and Kingman High School work together to provide the very best education, both academic and character development, for our girls. Many of our girls came to Main Place Youth struggling with academics. Responsibility for academic achievement is emphasized at Main Place. Our girls are tutored during the school year in our classroom. It has been our experience to see the vast majority of our girls on the honor roll. MPY staff and administration encourage our girls to fully participate in both academic and extracurricular activities. We have had girls participate in choir, band and sports. All the MPY girls are in attendance to support another MPY girl in her extracurricular activities. After having completed their program and MPY, some of our girls have elected to stay at Main Place Youth to complete their high school education. Students attending KHS can also qualify to concurrently earn college hours by enrolling in the Pratt County Community College program.
Kingman High School graduation ceremony
An MPY girl graduating from KHS sings at graduation ceremony A parent of an MPY girl recently graduated from KHS says... "Our daughter received an education at Kingman High School superior to what she would have received had she stayed at her high school at home [in a large Texas metropolitan school district]. The education she received was rigorous including the highest math and physics offered. She was also able to earn college credit while attending KHS. She also enjoyed a great number of opportunities in choral music performance. Kingman High School is one of the very best schools our family has ever been associated with." ![]() Kingman High School | 260 W. Kansas | Kingman, KS 67068 phone: 620-532-3136 fax: 620-532-3027
MPY staff, family and friends honor MPY girls graduating from Kingman High School with a reception at our home. High school graduation is an important time for an MPY girl and a milestone in the life of a girl restored from drugs, alcohol or other life-controlling issues. Family members and friends of our girls share the happiness and thankfulness with their graduating daughters.
