Snow Sport Academy (formerly Levi Alpine School) includes four different orientation options: alpine skiing, ”multi-skill”, freeride and, most recently, freeski.
There are a total of 55-60 students each year, most of whom study at Kittilä high school, but there are also students at REDU's Kittilä unit. The number of students represents more than a third of the entire High School's students.
The Lapland Education Centre REDU - Kittilä branch offers education opportunities in collaboration with local businesses and organizations in the region. Lapland and international relations play an important role in REDU’s activities. A portion of students get jobs abroad in international work environments. It is possible to complete a dual degree in Kittilä, with the Levi Snow Sport Academy offering those interested in snow sports the possibility to combine their studies with basic vocational training.
Kittilä High School is a growing educational institution with over 130 students. The school aims to support students’ growth in becoming good, balanced, educated, and engaged citizens. Giving students the skills, information, and preparation for lifelong learning, as well as for growth in their work and personal life is essential.
Although most of our students come from the Kittilä area, the school also draws students from other parts of Finland, particularly due to interest in the Levi Snow Sport Academy.
