The mission of The Altamont School is to improve the fabric of society by graduating compassionate, well-educated individuals capable of independent thinking and innovative ideas. The school attracts, nurtures and challenges students whose commitment to truth, knowledge and honor will prepare them not only for the most rigorous college programs, but also for productive lives.
Altamont is a family of 360 students in grades 5-12 with socioeconomic, ethnic, and religious diversity. Altamont is a good choice for students who want greater breadth and challenge in all areas of school life. We combine a college preparatory program with a personalized college search program.
Students participate in arts, world languages, community service, clubs, class projects and athletics. They also benefit from a 1-to-1 laptop program, an advanced computer science curriculum and unparalleled service leadership opportunities through Altamont’s Miree Center.
