Principal Message

Malan's Peak School is proud to serve the Youth in Care Students in the Ogden School District.  Within Malan's Peak School we have many programs serving the YIC student.  There are currently two locations for Malan's Peak (Mill Creek and Weber Valley Detention).  For the 2018-19 school year Mill Creek will be starting a new apprenticeship program through and in conjunction with the Ogden Weber Technical College.  The program will be for mainly our graduated students but may have some of our students who are close to graduation as well.  The Weber Valley Detention location just opened in the late spring and early summer.  This location is where we house the Detention, Day Skills Invention, Archway, BCI, and ALTA programs for all Youth in Care students within the Ogden School District.  We also provide our Youth in Care students that are attending the traditional schools in the Ogden School District with a Check and Connect Mentor.  We currently have 4 mentors serving the students.  We are excited about the new programs and for the new school year.

Secure Care Facilities are long-term locked confinement facilities for serious and habitual delinquent youth. These youth require 24-hour monitoring and supervision focused on rehabilitation and community protection.

• Program Description
  • Youths are ordered to Secure Care by a Utah Juvenile Court Judge. Upon commitment, the Youth Parole Authority assumes jurisdiction. Once committed to Secure Care, youths are assessed to determine their rehabilitative needs and to reduce their risk of reoffending. This becomes the Treatment Plan that guides a youth’s progress in Secure Care. The length of stay in Secure Care and parole dates are decided by the Youth Parole Authority. Each case is reviewed on a quarterly scheduled basis. Youths placed in Secure Care are rated daily to determine individual progress on treatment goals and their behavior in the facility. To help promote success, youths are also provided with mental health, educational, recreational and medical/dental/optometry services. They also have the ability to participate in other classes and programs to enhance their individual talents, to become more employable, and to improve their independent living skills.

Check & Connect is an intervention used with K-12 students who show warning signs of disengagement with school and who are at risk of dropping out. At the core of Check & Connect is a trusting relationship between the student and a caring, trained mentor who both advocates for and challenges the student to keep education salient. Students are referred to Check & Connect when they show warning signs of disengaging from school, such as poor attendance, behavioral issues, and/or low grades.

In Check & Connect, the "Check" component refers to the process where mentors systematically monitor student performance variables (e.g., absences, tardies, behavioral referrals, grades), while the "Connect" component refers to mentors providing personalized, timely interventions to help students solve problems, build skills, and enhance competence. Mentors work with caseloads of students and families for at least two years, functioning as liaisons between home and school and striving to build constructive family-school relationships.

Parent involvement is very important to student academic achievement. By serving on the school council, parents have the opportunity to collaborate with other parents, teachers and the principal to set and achieve school goals. Parents are rewarded with a better understanding of the educational process and have the opportunity to develop relationships with school leadership. A parent always serves as chair of the council. Parents make up the majority of the council and are often the driving force in how School LAND Trust funds are spent.

La participación de los padres es muy importante para el logro académico del estudiante. Al servir en el consejo de la escuela, los padres tienen la oportunidad de colaborar con otros padres, maestros y el director para establecer y alcanzar las metas de la escuela. Los padres son recompensados con una mejor comprensión del proceso educativo y tienen la oportunidad de desarrollar relaciones con el liderazgo escolar. Un padre siempre sirve como presidente del consejo. Los padres constituyen la mayoría del consejo y son a menudo la fuerza impulsora en cómo se gastan los fondos fiduciarios de la escuela LAND.
