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.

This school is the BEST school that we've sent our daughter to. She loves it and actually wants and enjoys to go every day! The teachers have helped her in every way she's needed and has helped her get to where she needs to be. The other schools didn't give her the attention that she needed and here they do and she got to where she needed to be in less than half the first year she started.

My daughter goes to Kindergarten and loves it! The class sizes are small. It is very parent and community involved.

We chose Collegiate Academy of Colorado for our son when he started Kindergarten. We liked the curriculum they use and the smaller classes. He is now in 1st grade and we are so thankful for CAC.

Collegiate Academy allowed my children the opportunity to learn at their pace, while still holding expectations for excellence. Since my children seem to learn quickly, the curriculum and teachers allowed for advancing the pace of learning. In high school, students engage in outdoor education once a...
