What does being recognized as a top school mean to the school? What has it taken to get that recognition?
Caprock Academy was recognized as one of only eleven Charter School Institute (CSI) schools in 2023 to earn a “Performance with Distinction” rating based on 2021-22 performance. CSI—which authorizes Caprock Academy assigns a rating and accredits its schools each fall based on its school performance framework, which considers a school’s academic, financial, and organizational data from the previous school year. Also, Caprock Academy is proud to be recognized as a top school by Niche! Our balanced approach to academics, character development, and community engagement sets us apart. We’re honored to be a part of a supportive and thriving learning environment that prepares our students for success.
What are ways businesses or individuals can partner with you for the school year?
Businesses and individuals can partner with Caprock Academy in a variety of meaningful ways throughout the school year. We’re always seeking opportunities to support our community through service projects, volunteer efforts, and collaborative partnerships. Currently, we work with organizations like Grand Valley Gives, Colorado Gives, the Grand Junction Chamber of Commerce, and the Kiwanis Club, but we’re eager to expand our network. We also offer Booster Club sponsorship opportunities for those interested in supporting our athletics and extracurricular programs. Whether through event sponsorship, volunteer initiatives, or unique community service projects, we welcome the chance to create impactful partnerships that benefit our students and the broader community.
What is the spirit animal of the school?
The spirit animal of Caprock Academy is definitely an eagle. The eagle represents strength, vision, and the pursuit of excellence—qualities that align closely with our mission at Caprock Academy. Just as the eagle soars to great heights with sharp focus and determination, our students are encouraged to aim high, embrace challenges, and achieve their full potential in both academics and character.
