Amy Pilkington

Principal

I am delighted at the opportunity to be the Principal of Wasatch Peak Academy.  I believe that there is no nobler calling than influencing the lives of others through education, and I am passionate about creating engaging learning environments where all students can grow into lifelong learners.  I love the service-learning approach and the role that it plays in creating students who are capable of making the world around them a better place.

I am a committed lifelong learner and avid devourer of books.  Learning new things and curiosity about the world around me is something that I feel very passionate about.  I earned a dual bachelor’s in English and history teaching from Utah State University and later went on to earn my master’s in education leadership and administration.  As any true lifelong learner, I am eagerly looking forward to the time when I can go back to school and earn my doctorate. 

I have been working with youth for more than 20 years and taught in the classroom for 7 years before becoming an administrator.  I adore being a part of the Wasatch Peak Community.  Our teachers, staff, students, and parents are some of the best that I have had the privilege to work with.
