Kirsten Clark '95 - 3-time Olympian

Being at CVA with a group of athletes with the goal of making the U.S. Ski Team pushed us all to work harder on the mountain and in the classroom. The small school setting was such a great environment for one-on-one interaction with coaches and teachers.

MULTIPLE WAYS TO ATTEND

List of 4 items.

  • FULL YEAR PROGRAM

    Carrabassett Valley Academy's Full Year Program follows a traditional school year calendar, running from the end of August through the end of May. Training and competing at a high level in winter sports is year round, involving dryland and on-snow training.

    The Full Year Program is open to all students from 7th-12th grade.
  • WINTER TERM PROGRAM

    Carrabassett Valley Academy's Winter Term Program runs from November to April, during the height of the on-snow training and winter competition season. Winter Term is the ideal program for 7th-9th grade students who are considering pursuing skiing or snowboarding on a full time basis. 10th-12th grade students with a B average and compelling reason to participate in the Winter Term can apply for the shortened program.

    CVA's Student Planning Director works closely with each student's home school to establish clear expectations, coordinate academic requirements, and report on each student's progress.
  • SEVEN MONTH TERM PROGRAM

    The Seven Month Term Program is an extension of CVA's Winter Term Program.

    There are 2 seven-month options: 
    1) arrive in September and stay until April for a Fall/Winter Term 
    2) arrive in November and stay until June for a Winter/Spring Term

    The Seven Month Program is optimal for 7th-9th grade students who are considering pursuing winter sports on a full time basis. Students in 10th-12th grade, with a B average and compelling reason to participate can apply for the shortened program.
