Mount Olivet

We've had the privilege of experiencing the Peak Expeditionary School community for nearly four years now. As a parent who is highly involved, I regularly observe firsthand how deeply the staff care for our kids and families and engage in meaningful ways unique to each student. I continue to be amazed that so many staff know every single student as well as most caregivers. For us, it feels like an extension of our family. Our child LOVES going to school!!! The staff and teachers are flexible, conscientious, caring, creative, dedicated, and insightful, and they deeply value working together. I so appreciate that this community welcomes dialogue and feedback and will make adjustments when positive outcomes can be gained. We've faced some behavior challenges over the years which were all met with honest and supportive conversations with teachers and the principal. Peak truly strives to be a safe place where kids can learn and grow and be challenged holistically. I resoundingly believe being part of this Peak CREW has fundamentally changed my expectations for what is possible within the school setting. We feel so fortunate that we discovered the ideal learning environment for our child (who is thriving) while also unexpectedly gaining access to such a remarkable community of humans.

My children attended Mountain Phoenix from ECE all the way through 8th grade, and it was truly a gift to our family. The teachers nurtured not just their academics, but their curiosity and sense of self. Today, both of my kids are in high school and still carry a genuine love of learning that was sparked at MPCS. The community and the Waldorf-inspired education gave them a foundation that continues to serve them.
