Mt. Olive Innovation and Technology High (often referred to as Mt. Olive High) is a specialized alternative education institution located in Duarte, California. As part of the Duarte Unified School District, the campus is designed to serve students who may benefit from a non-traditional academic setting. The school focuses on providing a personalized learning environment that emphasizes student growth, credit recovery, and the development of essential life and career skills, helping students who might be at risk of falling behind stay on track for graduation.

In addition to its core curriculum, the school integrates technology to foster innovation and meet the diverse learning needs of its student body. By maintaining smaller class sizes and a supportive staff-to-student ratio, Mt. Olive aims to provide a more flexible and individualized experience compared to a comprehensive high school. This approach allows students to work at their own pace in a structured, focused atmosphere that prioritizes both academic achievement and the transition to post-secondary success.
