Welcome to CEC Colorado Springs 6-12!
Colorado Early Colleges Colorado Springs 6-12 (CECCS) was founded in 2007 as a tuition-free, open enrollment public charter high school. As a small high school of around 600 students, CECCS provides a personal and supportive atmosphere where students are able to pursue their unique and individual educational and career goals. As an early college high school, CECCS’s academic program is designed to allow students who complete the curriculum to earn an associate degree, 60+ college credit hours, and/or industry certifications at no cost to families. CECCS will be adding a Middle School program starting Fall 2021. For more information, RSVP to one of our informational meetings by scrolling down on this page to our calendar and choose a date.
Colorado Early Colleges Colorado Springs provides students in grades 6th-12th the opportunity to begin working on college-level courses as soon as they are college ready. CECCS assesses every student who enrolls and meets students where they are at, no matter the level. CECCS students earn a combination of high school and college credits as they pursue a high school diploma and an Associate degree or higher.

Every Goal Deserves a Plan.
At CECCS, our Advising staff strive to understand and respect the uniqueness of each student and their educational goals. They recognize that high school is a time of exploration and that student interests and goals can quickly change. This awareness drives their collaborations with each student to create an Individual Career and Academic Plan (ICAP) that remains consistent with their educational goals, career interests, and abilities.
