Mountain Crest High School (MCHS) is a four-year public high school in the western United States, located in Hyrum, Utah. Established 41 years ago in 1983 as part of the Cache County School District, its campus is in the southeast part of Hyrum, a city in the Southern part of Cache County. Mountain Crest High is currently in the Utah High School Activities Association (UHSAA) class 4A Region 12 and its mascot is a mustang. The school was split for the 2016-2017 school year after the completion of Ridgeline High School; new boundaries were drawn and a portion of the student body and faculty were assigned to the new school.[2] Students residing in the cities and towns of Hyrum, Wellsville, Mendon, Paradise, Avon, and Mount Sterling are within its geographical jurisdiction.

Academics

Mountain Crest incorporates classes from Bridgerland Technical College. These classes are only available to juniors and seniors. In the mornings and afternoons, these classes take up two hours and count as one full class credit instead of the normal .5 credit assigned for classes.

Mountain Crest has a Model United Nations team, which took the top two awards at the Regional High School Model United Nations 2007. [citation needed] Mountain Crest's Scholastic Olympiad team also places in competition every year.
