School Profile

Vail Ski & Snowboard Academy is the first and only fully accredited and certified public academy for ski, snowboard, and other world-class sports. 

We provide a rigorous college preparatory academic program while supporting the athletic and personal goals of our students. In partnership with Ski & Snowboard Club Vail, other elite clubs, and Eagle County School District, VSSA facilitates the attainment of our students’ dreams by offering challenging academics, flexible scheduling, individualized attention, and access to world-class training.
