The Academy for Math, Engineering, & Science (AMES) is a public charter high school founded in 2003.

AMES primarily focuses on a STEM based advanced curriculum and is recognized as one of Utah's best high schools.

It receives ongoing financial support from the state of Utah as well as various corporate donors and charitable foundations.

AMES opened along with 6 other STEM Early Charter High Schools being funded by Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation around Utah.

Other foundations, companies, organizations, and private donors have also contributed to AMES in every way they can including donations from Intel, the Olympics (donating Gateway computers during the 2002 Olympics), and other financial contributions towards AMES including state funding.

Due to AMES's intended small environment to maintain an efficient student to teacher ratio, this method implies an unbiased decision on those who are accepted into joining.

When AMES first started operating, it got quick media attention (specifically Deseret News) as one of the top 50 schools and has since then raised in ranks.

University courses currently taught at AMES include calculus, physics, chemistry, college algebra, writing and humanities.
