The primary purpose for the Wasatch Academy Advisory Program is to cultivate a supportive learning environment through creating meaningful relationships between adults and students and to encourage an overall school culture of care and respect.

The Wasatch Academy faculty and staff take seriously their role as advisors. Advisors have the responsibility for helping their advisees navigate the Wasatch Academy learning community.   Advisors address the academic, social, and emotional needs of their advisees in weekly meetings.   Furthermore, advisors help nurture and support advisees with various every day life situations that may arise. 

The support of each student’s parent is crucial to understanding the needs of the student in accomplishing their goals at Wasatch Academy and preparing them for success in college and in life. When we work together, we allow our students to realize their potential in and out of the classroom.

Parents can expect initial communication from their child’s advisor once a week for the first month after the school year commences. Monthly communication on their child’s progress is provided throughout the remainder of the school year. Given the full schedules of our faculty, the preferred way to communicate with advisors is via e-mail.
