“7S made me feel like I could be myself right away. I had an amazing time and can honestly say last winter was the most fun I’ve had in my whole life,” says 2019 Grad Anika Aschbacher who attended 7S from the Yukon to ski race with the Red Mountain Academy.
Seven Summits Centre for Learning, administered by the Visions for Small Schools Society (VSS), opened in Fall 2013, creating a new innovative option for education for grade 8–12 students from Rossland and beyond. We partner with RED MOUNTAIN ACADEMY, BLACK JACK SKI CLUB and KOOTENAY DANCEWORKS so that athletes in sport-intensive and/or international programs can benefit from our flexible learning model.
