Our Admissions Process

Registration & Tuition

The registration process begins with a personal interview at the school.  Pikes Peak Academy charges a monthly tuition on a sliding scale that is based on total household income and family size, making it affordable for any family desiring to attend. All families should budget for a monthly tuition cost during every month except June and July, when PPA is not in session. Call the school office today at (719) 473-5745 to ask questions or schedule your interview!

Student Assessment

Beginning at the initial interview and again during the first day of class, PPA staff will assess each new student’s academic needs by evaluating specific reading, writing, and math levels. These evaluations will help reveal existing academic competencies and will  provide PPA staff with the information needed to better tailor each student’s academic coursework.

Students work quite closely with their teachers in a highly relational environment where those teachers will equip, challenge, and encourage their students to attain a minimum mastery level of 80% on all academic assignments. Every Friday, parents and student advocates are updated with a weekly progress report of all academic and life-skills progress.

Closed Campus

PPA provides a hot lunch each Monday-Thursday. On Friday’s, students may or may not be on campus so lunch is not provided.  Students may leave campus only with parent permission in conjunction with the Director of Education or when accompanied by a PPA staff member.
