This High School is amazing! You get to do College classes in high school (without cost) and you can explore career classes! Highly recommend for those who want to go to college or want higher education!

What I liked about CEC Early College was it wasn't like any regular high school. It's more of an hands on type of school and it's small which was a good thing for me because teachers are more focused on students that need the extra help. Also, I love that we get to experience a real college we go to CCD(Community College of Denver) and actually get to meet real college students and real professions and crazy thing is they don't even know you're a high school student so you get no special treatment. I would recommend CEC to anyone who is more of a hands on person and wants a step towards their education.

CEC Middle College of Denver is a great place for all of its students to get involved on current events in their community. With the amazing college classes that are offered for all its students and classes for hands on business practices, it does a great job preparing students for the real world. The only thing I would like to see changes in is the selection of your desired courses to be less complicated in order for its students to focus on their own future.

The terrible experience at this school starts from it's leadership on down. Admin does not communicated or with with the staff unless you are in the inner circle. Admin is very re-active and not pro-active. Because of this the school does not work like a team and does not socialize with the team. Pe...
