Academics

When it comes to academics, we strive to create a culture and environment that encourages our students to succeed, whether in our classroom or on the road with their team and coaches. Individual GPA goals are set with each student, and they are held accountable to their academic goals. Students at Wy’East Mountain Academy are guided to become strong independent learners that are prepared for post-high school education and beyond.

Most students attending Wy’East Mountain Academy are enrolled in Edgenuity, an accredited online K-12 school. The school’s web-based curriculum meets Oregon state standards while licensed teachers provide the instruction online. On top of that, Wy’East Mountain Academy provides our own in-class teaching staff offering further guidance and support to keep students on track throughout the school year and provide greater depth of understanding. This combination of in-person and online schooling allows our students to succeed whether they’re on another continent or on campus.

Our Academy staff are dedicated to your student’s success and we believe that their education plays a vital role in our students’ future whether they achieve Olympic gold or earn collegiate regalia.  Please contact us to discuss a personalized program for your child.

While most of our students attend the entire academic school year, and use our online curriculum platform, some elect to do a single semester and some students choose to use their own curriculum platform while they are here. We have the ability to develop a program that works for you and your child.

For international students and athletes our Academy offers full-time study or shorter term 3 to 6 month training camps and travel programs designed to visit and train at various locations and facilities around the US and attend US based competitions in ones sport. Programs can be 3 to 6 months long depending on the type of visitor visa the athlete is granted. A B-2 tourist visa is usually good for 6 months. Longer term programs can last all the way through high school graduation and will require an F-1 student visa.
