Calo Programs is a residential treatment facility located in Lake Ozark, Missouri. Our students may have felt like they don't fit in at mainstream schools due to learning disabilities or anxiety. Our smaller class sizes of 6-10 students allows our teachers more individualized attention resulting in academic success. Although a few of our students will graduate from Calo, most of our students will return home to conventional schools with normal expectations. Using our relationship-based approach, we strive to help students become a more self-aware learner who is comfortable in a classroom.
