Everest Collegiate High School & Academy

Since 1991, we`ve provided families in Southeastern Michigan with extraordinary Catholic education on our 90-acre campus located in Clarkston.
The hallmark of an Everest education is Integral Formation, which forms all aspects of a child: their intellect, their spirit, and their character.
Everest understands that God made each person unique with their own set of talents and gifts. Small class sizes allow our highly qualified faculty to work with each student individually to ensure they`re achieving their personal potential.
Our students receive the academic advantages of single-gender formation while still having co-ed social opportunities.
Everest also hosts international students from grades 6-12 which provides students with a multi-cultural learning experience.
