I think the ideal situation would be to somehow get a hold of a staff's keys, and take their car.

Blount County
* Phillip W. Cooper, Knoxville, reported at 7:11 a.m. May 30 that, while he was doing counseling work at Peninsula Village, Jones Bend Road, Louisville, he was grabbed by one of the male juveniles in the group and his car keys fell from his pocket during the struggle. He said another of the youths picked up the keys, then the two boys left through a window. He said he later saw his car leave the property but did not know who was in the vehicle. Runaway reports were filed on the youths, a 17-year-old from Kingsport and a 16-year-old from Ohio, who are both in state custody.Theft, filed 5/30/03, The Daily Times
"His car keys fell from his pocket during the struggle," Yeah, right. The counselor got jacked, his keys were taken, two yoots left by the window, and the guy claims he was clueless about who was in the vehicle.
There is no "escape" at Peninsula Village, they call it "elopement". Escape makes it sound like the kids are at Villa del Peni against their will. Elopement sounds like a Vegas wedding, but I guess one of the above kids made a union between his foot and Phil the counselor's Pillsbury ass.
These facilities like to set up in rural, low income counties because they can offer jobs to the locals, bring in tax revenue and "tourism".
They can pad the local sheriff's campaign funds and keep him in office, ensuring he'll be their obedient bitch. (Like the sheriff in Montana who looks the other way when shit happens at Spring Creek)
PV is in a rural shithole. It's on Jones Bend Rd., a long stretch of blind curves that's a bitch driving the posted speed limit. Imagine a teen in a stolen car hellbent on getting the fuck away at top speed. Even if he makes it off Jones Bend Rd., he's still lost in the land of the inbred.
The other option is a large body of water. I'd take my chances swimming across or stealing a boat off one of the docks. It makes better use of the golden hour and would get you closer to Knoxville.
Oh, yeah, if a staffer overtakes you and you have boots or good shoes on, stomp on the top of the bastard's foot as hard as you can. Those small bones break easily.
