Mt. Helix Academy is a WASC-accredited, co-educational, and non-sectarian preparatory school that educates approximately 250 San Diego County students in Transitional Kindergarten – 9th grade. Located in La Mesa, CA, Mt. Helix Academy has been called “East County’s best-kept secret.” Mt. Helix Academy goes way beyond traditional schooling because it is based on what the science of education tells us is effective, efficient, and enjoyable. We challenge our students with a curriculum and teaching methods designed to help students acquire academic skills and knowledge at faster rates than their age-mates at other schools. For example, we have 4th Graders taking Pre-Algebra, 6th Graders taking Algebra 2 and Geometry, 3rd Graders in 7th Grade level reading groups, and many other high achieving students.
