ABOUT OUR NAME
“Uinta” is a Native American term that means “high” place. This name embodies our goal to help every girl achieve her highest potential. The Uinta Mountains in Northeastern Utah are considered a special place by the local Native American tribes.
ABOUT OUR LOCATION
Uinta Academy is located in the rural community of Wellsville, which is 7 miles west of Logan, Utah. Uinta’s homes sit at the base of the Wellsville Mountains and have an incredible view of the entire Cache Valley, which is bordered on the east by the Bear River Mountains. Shopping, medical facilities, and cultural and recreational activities are minutes from campus. Logan is the home of the Utah Festival Opera and the Ellen Eccles Theatre which hosts concerts, community theater events, ballet, and national touring companies. The Cache Valley Center for the Arts hosts the Gallery Walk and the Summerfest Arts Faire. Utah State University hosts many artistic and cultural events, including traveling art galleries, symphony performances, plays, and public lectures. Cache Valley and the surrounding mountain ranges abound with recreational opportunities and we are within a half day’s drive of six national parks, including Yellowstone. Visitors fly into the Salt Lake International Airport which is a 75 minute drive from campus.
Cache Valley has a humid continental climate, which means we experience all four seasons. Summer temperatures average around 80 degrees with occasional thunderstorms. Winters temperatures average around 30 degrees, accompanied by moderate snowfall.
