What's Unique About Altamont?

The uniqueness of Altamont is experienced in the blending of school spirit with the spirit of learning. It derives in part from the character and commitment of Altamont’s students, in part from the atmosphere of a special place, and in part from the rich traditions that have developed at the school over the years.

From the art-filled hallways and sculpture garden to the breadth of special programs, seminars, festivals and other observances, Altamont signals that ours is no ordinary school – and that our students have aspirations beyond the ordinary as well.
