At Colorado Early Colleges, our mission has always centered on ensuring every student has access to exceptional educational opportunities, pathways, and support. After careful consideration and strategic review, our Governing Board has voted to close the CEC Windsor campus at the end of this academic year and merge it with our robust CEC Fort Collins Middle and High School campus, effective June 30, 2026.
Starting with the upcoming 2026-27 school year, our CEC Windsor campus location will close and merge with our CEC Fort Collins campus! The reason for this transition is to support our ongoing goal of offering the highest level of learning programs possible to students in the Northern Colorado area.
We encourage our Windsor families to learn more about and consider enrolling at CEC Fort Collins High School or CEC Fort Collins Middle School.
