Squaw Valley Accademy(highschool)
SQUAW VALLEY ACADEMY is a California 9th-12th grade international boarding and day school at Lake Tahoe. Our teachers work closely with each student and in small groups to help achieve best college acceptances. We have two-hour evening study halls each school night supervised by teachers. Those study halls and our average class size of 8-10 students assure personal attention and a climate of success for each student.
