Peak to Peak is a wonderful school. My kids attended there for five years and couldn't have gotten a better education. The students are placed in classes according to their ability rather than their age, so they are appropriately challenged. The teachers really care about each student, too. While the academics are great, there are also a lot of extracurriculars. Both the soccer and hockey team won state last year! The campus is only about five years old and is in nice shape and parents are encouraged to volunteer.
