The Peak Experience: Private School in Colorado
The Peak School is more than a private school in Colorado; it is a community of families, educators, and residents of Summit County and neighboring communities all working toward the same goal—to ignite a passion for learning in our students and to develop their individual identities in order to become informed and engaged citizens. As a progressive independent school, our focus is on a personalized experiential education delivered through challenging curriculum and taught by talented, experienced teachers. Located in Frisco, Colorado, The Peak School serves middle school and high school students in grades 6 – 12.
“I am pleased to congratulate The Peak School for their designation as a 2024 Cognia School of Distinction, a program which recognizes public and non-public institutions that exemplify excellence in education and service to learners,” said Dr. Mark A. Elgart, President and CEO of Cognia. Cognia selected The Peak School as one of the 49 schools and 11 systems out of more than 1,952 eligible institutions that hosted a Cognia Accreditation Engagement Review during the 2023-2024 school year.
