Our school provides students with a vibrant, inclusive, and life-changing education. Our teachers and trained specialists create classroom experiences where students are actively engaged in their education and achieve more than they ever imagined possible.
With a curriculum that spans from Pre-K through High School, Shining Mountain has built a strong community that values creativity, connection, and a meaningful commitment to both local and global engagement.
The recent development of the new high school and campus is a testament to continued growth and the lasting impact of our school values. We encourage students to take intellectual risks and engage authentically to foster academic excellence as well as empathy and compassion; essential qualities in today's world.
