Eagle Mountain residents are moving closer to accessing in-person college courses, technical training, and a new high school within city limits. On April 30, the Lake Mountain School District (LMSD) Board of Education approved the purchase of a 100-acre site in Eagle Mountain that is intended to become a shared education campus involving Mountainland Technical College (MTECH) and Utah Valley University (UVU).
The new campus will be situated west of Eagle Mountain Blvd. and north of Mid Valley Road.
The shared campus is designed to align education with regional workforce needs while reducing barriers between high school, technical training, and four-year degrees. Planned features for the site include accelerated learning options that permit high school students to engage in college and technical coursework.
Additionally, the campus will host workforce-focused programs linked to high-demand industries in Utah, along with expanded access to certifications and continuing education for adult learners.
The partnership aims to place a future LMSD high school, MTECH, and UVU on the same 100-acre property rather than building separate facilities across the region. This creates a connected pathway for students to transition from high school coursework into degrees or certifications without changing locations.
LMSD Board President Julie King stated that this 100-acre campus represents a bold, forward-thinking investment in the future of the community.
