Why SBA?

Each prospective student and his/her parents have unique reasons for their interest in Sugar Bowl Academy. Some are frustrated by a school that won't let skiers travel without penalizing them academically, while others simply want to go to high school in a place where they can ski 120 days a year. Our students all have one thing in common, and that is they are all highly motivated to become the best they can be on the hill and in the classroom.

"My school won't let me miss classes to travel to races."

"I feel like our family spends the whole winter in the car driving up to the mountains and back every weekend."

"My daughter is so committed to ski racing, but her teachers have no idea what the sport is all about. She's a great student, but I can't see how she will be able to balance skiing and school where she's at right now."

"I can't keep up with my competition if I am only training on the weekends."

"Skiing is my passion! It's all I want to do."

Whatever reason has you interested in our school, Sugar Bowl Academy was created to provide an exceptional academic and athletic experience to young men and women who want to challenge themselves on the hill and in the classroom. We are looking for individuals who will contribute to our school community, work hard, and have fun.
