Our address is 150 N Skyline Drive, Fayetteville, AR 72701. This address covers our entire 32-acre campus. To get to the main office, drive through the main gates of Mount Sequoyah and look for the Dining Hall up the hill; the office is across the parking lot from Summit Hall. There are three entrances to Mount Sequoyah, so it’s possible to enter through one and get turned around. Don’t hesitate to call the office for help navigating, and don’t be afraid to enter through the main gate, which should always be open. If you are arriving by charter or school bus, please do not take Dogwood to reach Mount Sequoyah, as buses have gotten stuck on this residential road; take Assembly or Maple from Mission/Hwy 45 instead.

Since becoming an independent non-profit in 2016, Mount Sequoyah has had a renewed focus on being a living and breathing member of our community, made up of and for our community. We recognize that in the past we have not always embraced all members of our community well. Today, we actively seek input from underrepresented and minority communities to understand their perspectives and how we can serve them better, because giving people a seat at the table is a key part of serving them well. Mount Sequoyah aims to be a center of community for all the people of Northwest Arkansas and the surrounding areas.
