The teachers give you a lot of freedom and don't treat you like you're still a little kid. The atmosphere at the Collegiate High School is very laid back, but also encourages learning. It's easy to feel comfortable in the environment.

The main reason I came to the Collegiate High School is to get two years of college education for free, but I also came because I wanted to be involved in an actual high school. My previous school was home school. Coming to the Collegiate High School is one of the best decisions I have ever made.
While the Collegiate High School provides the opportunity to explore and expound upon your academic abilities, it also allows you to have a normal high school experience with some amazing people.
I would have to say that my favorite part of being a Collegiate High School student is the family of friends I have become a part of.

Because I have had the Collegiate High School experience, I will be more prepared for college and will know what to expect.

At the Collegiate High School the faculty is never going to give you up, and never going to let you down. I'd rate them "over 9000!"

My parents really wanted me to go to the Collegiate High School, but I wasnt sure. I am glad I did. Being so small of a school, everyone knows each other in practically the first week. The teachers really make an effort to know the students as well. The atmosphere here is really close.

I chose to come to the Collegiate High School because I knew this would be a great opportunity. Watching my brother graduate from this school and move on to be a junior in college rather then a freshman, I knew this school would be perfect for me to get a head start on the medical career I plan to pursue. Unlike previous schools I have attended, the Collegiate High School challenges me to push myself to try harder.

My parents decided to send me to the Collegiate High School. I did not really know what the school was like, so I did not know if I wanted to go. I had been homeschooled since kindergarten, and the Collegiate High School was very different. I had never had instructors before, and I was not accustomed to a rigid schedule. The Collegiate High School is an excellent opportunity and I am glad that I came.

I chose to come to the Collegiate High School to get a head start on my college education. The Collegiate High School is different from my previous school because I am granted freedoms that give me responsibility over my academic success. The competition pushes me to excel.
The Capstone Project has really shown me how to piece together a project for my classes. The Collegiate High School also has taught me the basic skills needed to sign up for classes, ask for financial aid, etc.
I love having classes here because the learning environment is completely different than it is at a high school. People come here because they want to learn.
