Welcome to CEC Fort Collins High School!
Colorado Early Colleges Fort Collins High School (CECFC) opened its doors in 2012 as a tuition-free, open enrollment public charter high school. CECFC 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, CECFC’s academic program is designed to allow students who complete the curriculum to earn an associate degree, 60+ college credit hours, and/or career credential at no cost to families.
Colorado Early Colleges Fort Collins provides students in grades 9th-12th the opportunity to begin working on college-level courses as soon as they are college ready. CECFC assesses every student who enrolls and meets them where they are academically, no matter the level. CECFC students earn a combination of high school and college credits as they pursue a high school diploma and an associate degree or higher.
All at $0 Cost to Our Families!

Every Goal Deserves a Plan.
At CECFC, 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.
