The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Pikes Peak Early College is great for college readiness and getting a head-start on a degree. Otherwise, there aren't many opportunities for students. They are very much STEM based, with robotics, engineering, and coding programs. There aren't any art or music classes outside of music and theatre appreciation. It's a small school, so there also aren't any sports programs. You have to leave the school in order to participate in any of those.

I really enjoyed my experience with PPCC. The teachers I met while attending my collage classes were very nice and organized. I also had fun and could relate to all my classmates. I am definitely looking forward to my classes in the Fall! Thank you.
