While students are in our care, not only do we educate them in core subject areas such as math, science, reading, language arts, and social studies. The students are also exposed to a variety of elective classes such as physical education, art, music, and horticulture. The classrooms are self-contained and supported by additional staff as well as the classroom teacher. Each student is assigned a therapist, and they receive 30 minutes of individual therapy as well as group therapy per week.build trybe, is a career technical education team and is a mentorship community that builds health and independence by empowering youth with employable skills. It is a bridge connecting youth, who lack a stable support system, to opportunity.

The students supported come from kansas foster, missouri foster, and day treatment schools as well as outside partner agencies.a program of cornerstones of care, bist provides training and support to teachers, parents, and administrators in pre-k to 12th-grade public, private, charter, and parochial schools in suburban, urban, and rural settings throughout the united states. With services and training for individuals, teams, or entire faculties tailored specifically for each school and or districts, bist can help staff and families become more trauma-informed for the students and children they serve. After an initial meeting and in-depth analysis with the consultants, they will host a training to give the entire staff a feel for the bist philosophy and program. The consultants will recommend a plan of action to meet the desired goals. Bist in-home services are also provided, which can help parents find new ways to connect with children whom they have previously found difficult. A bist consultant makes regularly scheduled in-home or virtual visits to develop a tailored program to address the child's and family's needs. The parent will learn strategies to teach/model and learn how to problem-solve with their children.
