I am a teacher at this school as well as a father of two little ones who were in the pre-school and after-care program last year. The school is very mission-driven. The faculty, staff, and religious are professional and stand on a united front to bring Christ to the forefront of all they do. A high level of care is paid to each and every student and my own children couldn't be happier with their experience here. I am glad to be a member of the Everest community.

This school appears to be nice and concerned for the well-being of their students and families they serve, however; this is far from the truth. This school only concerns themselves with money and will have their hand in your pocket at every chance they get.

I like the small class sizes and individual attention. My AP classes only have 4-5 kids in them. It's a close family community and everyone knows everyone and supports each other. Athletics are great and if you want to play a sport you can, there are no cuts. There are plenty of opportunities for service in the school as well as out in the community and the religious formation is excellent.

The administration is EXTREMELY lacking. Both the academy and high school carry massive amounts of overhead. Which is likely where th...

My kids started Everest in 2018 and they have loved it ever since. Has it been easy, absolutely not. They have standards that as a parent I had a VERY difficult time dealing with. However, would I do it again? YES. Like any school, regardless private or public, you WILL have challenges. That is just...

My children have attended Everest since lower elementary school. My oldest just graduated with the 2022 high school class and I couldn't be happier with Everest Collegiate. He will be attending a top-tier school and I believe he will use the skills he has received at Everest to be a force of change...

I attended Everest Academy for several years. The school is operated by the Legion of Christ, who push a particular form of “fundamentalist Catholicism” for lack of a better term. We were taught things like Biblical literalism (e.g. young earth creationism) and mysticism (e.g. if you look at a commu...
