Academy of the Canyons is a very academic-oriented school, as it has no sports. It has high offerings in the STEM fields, so you can take advantage of a lot of opportunities there. The clubs and activities are lacking in terms of their breadth, but that is to be expected from a school of 400, so most of what you do outside the classroom is in reality outside the school. The teachers and staff there are amazing and always ready to support you, in & out of the classroom! Overall, a great school to recommend to academically focused, mature students ready to challenge themselves in a college environment.
Academy of the Canyons is a school that I can wholeheartedly say is one that expresses the joys and importance of education and the involvement of the student body in the school. Despite a low population of around 400, the school's high standards for academic excellence and student participation in various areas of the school such as its clubs and organizations offer students opportunities to express their specialties in a diverse and judgement-free environment. It's because the Academy of Canyons values communication and group-oriented projects that advocate for students to participate in creating change that serves a community and enables potential advancement in society. It gives them a chance to express their ideas, thoughts, and freedom of speech necessary for the betterment of society. In Academy of the Canyons, students are given all-around support from their teachers and peers to the point where everyone is treated like a family that never leaves each other behind.
I am currently a junior at Academy of the Canyons Middle College Highschool. It truly is such an amazing school. The enviroment is safe and secure and the acceptance of individuals is incredibly heartwarming. The students hold up academic intergrity, hard working individuals, and after the kindest students along with the staff.

Overall an amazing school and I will definitely remmeber my highschools years as the best times of my life because of how much Academy of the Canyons has imapcted me
