Mountain Academy
Student Life
A robust student life program
We believe in cultivating community.
Student Life on the
Jackson Campus
Athletics
Students enjoy the opportunity to participate in the wide array of athletics offered by the Teton County School District. These include a rich array of both team and individual sports. Mountain Academy also partners with Alpine and Nordic competition organizations -JHSC.
After School Programs
After an academically demanding day at school, Mountain Academy’s after-school activities offer plenty of time for friends, fun, and relaxation in an engaging environment designed to help children learn and grow.
Some recent offerings include drama, Lego engineering, and robotics.
Community Meetings
Community Meetings are a time for the campus community to come together to collaborate, celebrate success, solve problems, practice mindfulness, and sing. We gather once a month, providing ample opportunities for student leadership, reflection, and community building.
Closing Circle
Mountain Academy’s day ends with a closing circle within each division to share about our day, ourselves, and each other. These circles include an element of sharing gratitude for ourselves, each other, and our place.
Morning Meetings
Morning Meetings and Daily Practice are community-building activities that bring students together to incorporate mindfulness and character-building practices within the school day. Teachers lead students in various activities, such as taking a mindful moment to recenter, expressing gratitude, noticing the natural world around them, or simply sharing some light-hearted goofiness.
Student Leadership
Student Leadership is an opportunity for students to engage in the democratic process. Through a robust nomination process, students are able to declare candidacy for a variety of leadership offices. This group of students takes charge of planning events and representing the will of the entire student body.
Hand To Work
Hands to Work is a period near the end of every school day when students participate in cleaning and organizational duties. Students gain independence and responsibilities through these activities. Faculty also perform Hands to Work duties, modeling community care for their student teams.
