Teton Science Schools Announce Mountain Acadamy

The Board of Directors of Teton Science Schools has announced that “Mountain Academy of Teton Science Schools” has been selected as the new name for the Pre-K through 12 independent school. The new name will replace the legacy names from the two-campus school – Journeys School, in Jackson, and Teton Valley Community School, in Teton Valley. After a partnership of many years and an integration of the Teton Valley Community School in 2012, the two campuses came together formally as one school in 2019. The selection of a new name for the school was part of a 7-month analysis of the Teton Science Schools’ brand overall. In making the selection, the Science School’s leadership sought ideas and feedback through a series of local and national surveys, community engagement sessions, teacher, parent and student feedback meetings and advisement from a small group of parents, teachers, staff and Board members. With the change, both campuses will continue to use their communities as a classroom to prepare students for college and beyond.
