We Are Sun Valley Community School

Our private school in Idaho is a community of students, educators, and families that thrives from a foundation of mutual respect and a love for learning. These are our stories.

One simply needs to attend graduation and listen to the way departing seniors speak about their experiences here to fully understand the scope of the work we do as educators, mentors, and friends.Travis Vandenburgh, Co-Director Outdoor Program

I love that you get to meet new friends every year at Sun Valley Community School. I also like going to specialist classes, where we learn things like choreography.Tommy, Third Grade

My favorite thing is how we're all connected. We all build relationships. A classmate is more than just a fellow student. A teacher is a friend. We all depend on one another. Carter, Eighth Grade

I don't feel like another face in the crowd at Sun Valley Community School. I feel significant.

The interpersonal relationships between teachers and students are transformative. Our daughter considers the school an extension of her family. Annie Kaiser, Current Parent

Not all classrooms have walls

Learning happens everywhere. We engage our students across our campuses, the wilderness, and the world.

Our Backyard

From our campus to the wilderness,
Desde nuestro campus hasta lugares remotos en la naturaleza

we inspire students to think critically, engage confidently, embrace challenges, and lead impactful, purposeful lives.
inspiramos a los estudiantes para que piensen críticamente, se comprometan con confianza, acepten los retos y lleven una vida impactante y con propósito.
