About
Located at the base of Mt. Hood, Oregon, Wy'East Mountain Academy (formerly Windells Academy) is a world-class outdoor-oriented, action sports academy designed to develop driven and talented students in the classroom as well as in the outdoors. Wy’East enrolls students ages 12-19 who want to combine a rigorous academic setting with skiing, snowboarding, skateboarding, mountain biking and other outdoor recreation sports. To this end, we offer sport-specific coaching that facilitates athletic progression at all levels, from just starting out to competing professionally. Our college preparatory academics enable students to learn, train and participate in action sports year-round while attaining high school or college credits that are transferable in or out of any US accredited school, national or international.
Meaning Of Wy'East
“Wy’East” is the original name for Mt. Hood, Oregon given by the Multnomah people who first inhabited its nearby lands. That this mountain draws us together is central to our spirit of adventure and achievement. It is this special place we call home and to which we pay homage.
