Academics

dare to ascend

Founded on a Western ranch at the base of the Rocky Mountains, Fountain Valley School values hard work and fortitude as we empower students to stamp their own brand and write their own stories. We nurture curiosity while cultivating lifelong learners. We promote asking big questions and embracing analytical and creative thinking. We empower students to assume responsibility for their learning while finding purpose and joy in their accomplishments. These objectives join the college-preparatory goal of educating students to acquire the skills and knowledge needed to be successful in future academic and lifetime pursuits.

A college-preparatory high school, Fountain Valley provides a robust curriculum that includes honors and advanced courses as well as elective courses for students at varying academic levels. With more than 100 interdisciplinary courses, Fountain Valley aims to deepen students' understanding and broaden their perspectives. In the humanities and world languages, the School emphasizes small, in-depth discussions that allow students to voice their opinions, engage in vibrant conversations, and develop a global outlook. Small class sizes also allow students in the sciences, fine arts, and mathematics to interact with faculty for greater understanding of course content.
