Wings of faith Academy?

[Oscar]

A volunteer from Domestic Prisoners of Conscience wrote me yesterday asking me for info about Wings of Faith Academy in Missouri. It seems that it is by far the most popular school searched in their blog 1000 places you dont want to be as a teenager.

It used to be named Refuge of Grace Academy until bad press hit them and they changed their name. It is also on Fornits Wiki

Years back use of corporal punishment was confirmed. It is not known whether they use this still.

Do anyone know anything about this school?

We managed to locate more links:

• What kind of parent would do this to a child? (Blog-entry)
• Testimony from Refuge of Grace Academy (survivor testimony)
• Testimony about a stay at which is now “Wings of Faith Academy” (Survivor testimony)

I found more testimonies on this address:

An article in the Kansas City Star mentions a little about the history of the school and the conviction of Bud Martin for his involvement in Heroin Trade.
