Apogee exists to reseed freedom in our children and in our nation through education for the entire family.
At Apogee Cache Valley, we don’t just educate—we empower learners to be thinkers, doers, and leaders in whatever path they choose.
Education should be meaningful and engaging.
Every child learns differently and deserves an education tailored to their potential.
Here, learners wake up excited for the day ahead.
While the focus of our program is on Physiology and Real-world preparation, we will utilize curriculums such as The Good and the Beautiful Math, Khan Academy, Brain Quest Workbooks, Night Zookeeper, and more. We will also incorporate activities from 1000 Hours Outside by Ginny Yurich and take inspiration from The Book Whisperer by Donalyn Miller, Awakening the Inner Reader in Every Child, and the Tuttle Twins books.
Our Yearly calendar runs from September through May. We try to align closely with the Cache County school district calendar, in order to make logistics easier for families with children at multiple schools.
We follow a practice of week-long breaks between sessions to provide true restoration for our leaders and staff. As you see the intense effort and growth your children put forth at Apogee, you will understand and appreciate these breaks.
Our group activities are not based on linear progression so we are free to incorporate an optional attendance policy. We encourage students and families to go on trips or participate in community events whenever it works best in their schedule.

Individual Duties
Hey, I'm Mandie! A passionate educator, mother, and leader who founded Apogee Cache Valley with one mission: to prepare children for the REAL world. Frustrated with the limitations of traditional schooling, I set out to create a place where kids thrive, learn boldly, and embrace adventure.
"I wanted this for my own children first. I saw what was missing, and I knew we had to build something better."
Hi everyone! My name is Brookelle Hatch and I’m so excited to be joining the Apogee team this fall! I grew up in the small town of Cokeville, Wyoming, and recently graduated from BYU-Idaho with a degree in Child Development. I’ll be working as a coach, helping your children learn, grow, and thrive. I’m passionate about supporting each child’s potential and can’t wait to be part of this amazing community. I’m also excited to trade in Rexburg’s weather for some sunny days in Utah!
Traditional education isn’t preparing kids for the world we live in. At Apogee Cache Valley, we’re building a future where learning is exciting, meaningful, and empowering.
Book a Call Today and take the first step toward a brighter future for your child.
