Koulunmäki Unified School has approximately one thousand students and over one hundred employees. In everyday life, we operate both as a unified school and in smaller groups.

The facilities are modern and up-to-date. Building A is new, building B is a valuable, old property that has been renovated. The new C building will be completed in 2025, and the middle school students are currently in evacuation rooms at the Äänekoski Technology Center, or TEKE. In the new C-building, new premises will also be completed for youth services and the Ala-Keitele music college.

The people of Koulunmäki school are actively involved in many things and organize events and activities. All sports facilities in the city center, such as the swimming hall and playgrounds, are nearby and used by the school. The school has a lot of club activities. 

Koulunmäki school has flexible pre- and elementary education, which means that the students are included from 1.-2. with classes. Koulunmäki also operates the preparatory education of the city of Äänekoski.
