What We Do
We’re reimagining how students learn and grow. As a micro school and athletic training facility, we blend strong academics with sport-specific physical training.
At Elite, students are active participants in their journey. They speak with purpose, lead with vision, and learn through action. Every moment is designed to develop the mindset, skillset, and confidence of a future-ready leader.
How We Teach: Learning That Builds Leaders
Student-Led Exploration: Students choose inspiring topics, research deeply, and share creative insights. They lead discussions and projects, sparking innovation from day one.
Socratic Discussion & Critical Thinking: Coaches ask open questions and present real-world challenges that encourage original thinking and clear, articulate expression.
Public Speaking & Communication: Students practice presenting ideas and leading conversations, sharpening confident, effective communication skills.
Strength-Based Mentorship: Coaches highlight each student’s unique talents, crafting personalized paths to maximize growth and success.
Integrated Academics & Athletics: We connect mental agility with physical training, developing endurance, focus, and resilient problem-solving skills across all areas of life.
Curriculum
Our comprehensive curriculum encourages student-led exploration, critical thinking, college and career readiness, and responsible civic engagement. Every child’s learning journey is unique, so their curriculum emphasis and pacing should be, too. Regardless, every part of our curriculum promotes discipline, mental fortitude, and self-belief.
We utilize a range of resources to build curriculum options including Studies Weekly, Empower, Khan Academy, Junior Achievement (a two-time Nobel Prize-winning program), and more. All are carefully vetted by our certified teachers. Parents may also request customized curriculum options for their child.

MEET THE OWNER & FOUNDER OF EP UTAH NORTH
ALITHIE FU'E ROCK
Owner and Chief Executive Officer
“It’s not our abilities that shape us—it’s our choices.” — Professor Dumbledore 😉
F7 sums me up: Faith, Family, Food, Fitness, Finance, Fashion & Freedom (and audiobooks, but they didn’t quite fit!). A Utah transplant, I was born and raised in Southern California by wonderful parents and a village like no other. After college and a church mission overseas, I became a stay-at-home working mom—juggling four amazing kids and graveyard shifts across industries to avoid daycare.
I proudly supported my brilliant husband Levi through his education and career as an electronics engineer for the Department of Defense.
With two decades in finance, education, and coaching—and through earnest prayer—it’s finally my turn! We’re thrilled to open our own microschool and athletic academy. 💪🏽📚
Teaching, especially young learners and youth, is my passion. Empowering the next generation with skills to become their best selves fuels my purpose.
At Elite Layton, our mission is clear: build strong leaders, cultivate problem solvers and critical thinkers, and foster self-reliance. We’re committed to creating an environment where students and athletes grow in confidence and thrive—nurturing the whole human: mind, body, and spirit. Customized learning plus personalized experiences equals a genuine desire to show up and succeed.
Inspired by Luke 2:52, we believe that whether you’re a believer or not, like Jesus, we can grow in wisdom, stature, and favor with both God and man.
MEET THE ACADEMY MANAGER
LORI CARRIGAN
DIRECTER OF OPERATIONS
I’m Lori Carrigan, the Academy Manager and an academic coach at Elite Utah North. Before stepping into education, I spent 10 years working as a registered nurse, which gave me a strong foundation in care, organization, and problem-solving.
I’m also a proud mom of ive and have volunteered in schools for over 15 years. Supporting students and families has always been a big part of my life, and I love helping create environments where kids can grow academically, emotionally, and socially.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family, anything volleyball-related, hiking, and gardening. I’m passionate about building community and encouraging a love of learning in everything I do
