Founded in 1982, Intermountain Christian School is a Pre-kindergarten through 12th grade private Christian school located on the east side of Salt Lake City. We are the only PreK through 12th grade non-denominational Christian school in the area. Fully accredited by Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI), CSI (Christian Schools International) and COGNIA, our exemplary education is displayed in academics, athletics, fine arts, and community outreach.
The ICS community relentlessly pursues exemplary and effective academics by teaching and developing students’ tools, skills, and foundations in an engaged, biblically integrated learning environment. The ICS community also affirms students as individuals and encourages them to solidify their identity in Christ, take ownership of their learning, and develop their unique character and talents while growing as image-bearers of God.
Ultimately we desire to send our students into this world ready to find their purpose, conquer their spheres, and make an impact on the world around them. We desire to help them to thrive in God's world.
