At Everest, we aspire to a higher calling

At Everest, you’ll find a place that is grounded in, and genuinely embraces, the tenets and traditions of the Catholic faith. On our campus, the active presence of priests and consecrated women, and the daily opportunity to participate in the sacraments of Eucharist and Reconciliation, encourage your child to develop an active, personal relationship with Christ in order to discover their unique and personal mission.

We study to achieve our highest potential

We believe a rigorous approach to academics, including honors and AP classes, builds necessary critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, and communication skills—helping our students reach their highest potential.

Lessons that last a lifetime

“Everest Academy welcomed our first four boys in the fall of 1997, the year we moved to Clarkston. At that time, the gymnasium and second floor of the current high school building were just being finished. Fast forward to today, we have had all nine of our children attend Everest with our youngest five children graduating from the high school. All our children have benefitted from the quality college-preparatory education and superior faith formation provided at Everest through the Integral Formation educational pedagogy. The faculty, staff, and religious community have gifted them with the tools needed to face today’s world with confidence and grace, and we are forever grateful.”
