GreatSchools Rating
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.

My experience at Rocky Mountain Prep has been fairly good, I have received the opportunity of getting college courses while in high school and the teachers have been really helpful. The downside of this high school is the lunch and the rules. I would like to see the dress code change, more field trips, and get longer lunch periods. The best part of my high school experience was joining the soccer team. The worst part was mostly how the teachers acted with certain students.

My experience with Rocky Mountain Prep has been interesting. When I first enrolled here the name of the school was Strive Prep RISE and then was changed to Rocky Mountain Prep RISE in 2023.During my time here, we have had 6-7 principles in a 3 year span so there's never been a sense of stability within our school. We have also lost over a dozen teachers and staff since transitioning from Strive to RMP. However, the classes and resources offered at the school have helped further prepare student's for college.

Amazing teachers, but admin and central make everyone's lives miserable. Distinct lack of "college-readiness" classes aside from concurrent enrollment classes and one AP class. I don't think I've been more stressed in my four years of going here because of all the uncertainty about the future of the school.

As a parent, you always want your child to push past their limits to realize, they can do anything they set their minds to and with the help of the teachers at Rise, they help us parents with that too.
