Please take our survey, we would love to hear from you!
PEAK Mastery is a tuition-free public charter school serving families in Logan and Cache Valley.
We are building a school where students develop strong academic foundations, apply what they learn through authentic experiences, and are known and supported by educators who understand their individual growth.
Proposed K-7 Opening: 2028-2029 School Year
Plans to expand to K–12 by 2033
PEAK Mastery is currently pursuing charter approval through the Utah State Charter School Board.
Children are capable of extraordinary growth when they are challenged appropriately, supported consistently, and given opportunities to understand why their learning matters.
At PEAK Mastery, strong academics are the foundation. Students build essential knowledge and skills, develop deeper understanding over time, and use what they learn through projects, discussion, field experiences, community connections, creative work, and real-world problem solving.
Along the way, consistent coaching relationships help students understand their progress, set goals, work through challenges, and take increasing ownership of their learning.
We are proud to offer Cache Valley families another thoughtful public-school choice.
Everything at PEAK Mastery comes back to three integrated pillars:
Build lifelong understanding.
Students work toward clearly defined, grade-level academic competencies aligned with the Utah Core Standards.
Teachers pay close attention to what students actually understand. When a student needs additional instruction or practice, they receive support. When they're ready for greater challenge, they have opportunities to keep growing.
Apply it to real life.
Students apply academic learning through grade-level Wonder Workshops, interdisciplinary projects, field experiences, community partnerships, service, discussion, and authentic problems.
Foundational academics aren't replaced by these experiences. They make them possible.
Make sure every student is known.
Every student has a consistent licensed educator who helps connect the pieces of their educational experience.
Coaches monitor academic progress, help establish goals, coordinate support, communicate with families, and provide continuity as students learn from different educators and through different experiences.
These three pillars form the core of PEAK Mastery's current instructional model. Wonder Workshops remain tied to grade-level Utah Core Standards, while coaches provide continuity across a student's broader educational experience.
Families have different needs. PEAK Mastery's current model provides two ways to participate in the same educational program:
More time learning on campus, with room to extend learning beyond it.
Students participate in four days of scheduled on-site learning plus one Extended Learning Experience day.
This pathway provides greater on-site structure while maintaining opportunities for personalized learning, field experiences, community learning, projects, enrichment, and other extended experiences.
Greater flexibility with continued school support and accountability.
Students participate in two scheduled on-site days plus three Extended Learning Experience days.
Families play an important partnership role, but they are not expected to replace the school or become their child's teacher. PEAK Mastery provides the academic expectations, learning resources, educator oversight, progress monitoring, and intervention necessary to support student progress.
Both pathways use the same Utah Core-aligned competencies, assessment and progress-monitoring structures, and academic expectations. The primary difference is where and how learning time is distributed.
PEAK Mastery is designed to give students both strong academic foundations and meaningful opportunities to use them.
Students continue working toward Utah's grade-level academic standards across both learning pathways. Focused instruction in foundational literacy and mathematics is paired with opportunities to read, write, discuss, investigate, create, collaborate, solve problems, and apply learning across disciplines.
On campus or as an Extended Learning Experience (ELE).
Foundations
Focused literacy and mathematics instruction with support, intervention, and challenge based on student readiness.
Wonder Workshops
Interdisciplinary, grade-aligned learning built around compelling questions, projects, and authentic applications.
Movement & Wellbeing
Regular opportunities for movement, outdoor time, connection, and healthy learning rhythms.
Fieldwork & Community Learning
Learning that extends into nature, local organizations, community spaces, service, research, and authentic experiences.
Electives & Life Skills
Time to develop interests, creativity, responsibility, practical skills, leadership, and new capabilities.
Literacy Adventures & Socratic Discussion
Reading, writing, storytelling, inquiry, thoughtful conversation, and opportunities to consider different perspectives.
Students may learn from several educators and in several environments over the course of their PEAK Mastery experience.
Their coach helps make sure those pieces remain connected.
Through coaching, reflection, goal setting, progress monitoring, portfolios, family communication, and ongoing support, students are encouraged to understand not just what they're learning, but how they're growing as learners.
Over time, PEAK Mastery aims to help students become increasingly:
Students who can think critically, communicate clearly, work through challenges, collaborate with others, and apply what they know.
PEAK Mastery's formal mission centers on cultivating curious, capable, self-directed learners through rigorous, personalized, mastery-based education connected to real life.
Students may use a combination depending on their learning plan and needs.
PEAK Mastery is being developed as another public-school choice for families in Logan and Cache Valley.
We know our community already has strong schools. PEAK Mastery is not being built because other schools are failing. It is being built for families who are looking for a particular combination of strong academics, personalized growth, real-world learning, sustained educator relationships, and greater flexibility within a public-school setting.
And because PEAK Mastery is still in development, community voices matter now.
Families can help us better understand what local students need, what families value, and whether this educational model is one our community wants.
Your response helps PEAK Mastery demonstrate community interest as we move through the charter approval process. It does not obligate your family to enroll.
