EMBRACING OUR FABULOUS MOUNTAIN ENVIRONMENT

With beautiful mountain trails for hiking and biking, rivers for rafting, nordic and alpine ski areas, and historical downtowns, our community makes learning fun and engaging.
HELPING STUDENTS FIND THEIR PASSIONS

Students help teachers understand what and how they want to learn and have choices of pathways to graduation. We equip them with skills like leadership, collaboration, and adaptability to prepare them for a future of hope and confidence.
