Monticello Academy was founded in West Valley City by parents who wanted more for their children than a typical public school provides. They wanted a school that:

  • Focuses on academic achievement and prepares students for advanced course work in junior high and high school
  • Is rich in history and cultural literacy
  • Reinforces traditional American values of hard work and strong moral character, and
  • Doesn’t skimp on the arts, music, technology, and physical education

For over a decade, Monticello Academy has been the realization of that dream for families in Salt Lake County. Monticello Academy opened a second campus in West Point, in north Davis County, for the 2019-2020 school year.

    We love Monticello!! I know my child is receiving an excellent education experience as well as being taught core moral values that will stay with him throughout his life. The teachers and staff go above and beyond to work with your child and recognize that they are individuals with specific needs and talents.
