Each Student recives their very own Equestrian Team Horse for the YEAR! BOARDING SCHOOL PROGRAM - SVIPA's unique Boarding School facilities are located on the property of the beautiful Tennessee Guest Ranch in Dunlap, TN (just 45 minutes from Chattanooga, TN). In addition to a very aggressive hands on 'pre-veterinarian based' academic program, students participate in both U.S. educational travel and International mission work.  Each student also receives their very own Equestrian Team horse for the school year making this an amazing education opportunity for all horse loving students!  SVIPA has a very unique individualized program allowing, encouraging and requiring the absolute best from each student. Boarding Students at SVIPA are sometimes enrolled in the COLLEGE PREPARATORY PROGRAM or the EAD Program.   The COLLEGE PREPARATORY PROGRAM at SVIPA is a very individualized and unique approach to education that allows both the 'average' student and the 'very gifted' student to use their passion for animals to reach their 'true' academic potential which is often times far beyond goals (both personal and academic) that they ever dreamed possible for themselves. As students progress into the High School level of academics at SVIPA they will be able to choose a Pre-Vet Tract or Pre-Psychology Tract as their major or minor for High School Graduation. Through partnering with several colleges, SVIPA College Preparatory High School students have the opportunity to not only prepare for college, but to begin earning their college credits while still in high school. This college preparatory program has proved so successful that some average to gifted students have aquired in excess of an entire year's worth of college credits or more by the time they graduate from the SVIPA High School program.  EAD PROGRAM - Equine Assisted Development Program - The SVIPA indivual based approach to learning also offers an amazing program for the student struggling with ADD, ADHD, Dyslexia and a variety of other special learning or behavioral needs. These students are typically enrolled in SVIPA's EAD Program - Equine Assisted Development Program. For more information on this program contact the school office by phone or email to see if your child is a candidate for this program.
