    Arizona College Prep Erie Campus Reviews

    I have been at ACP Erie for six years now and have enjoyed every moment I have spent here. ACP Erie has friendly, caring faculty members; an safe, close-knit environment; and high-quality, education from extraordinary teachers. Due to my experience here, I truly believe I am prepared for college and my future after high school. In addition, our students, faculty, and teachers are accepting and exhibit tolerance toward the high diversity in ethnicities, religions, and cultures dominating the campus. Ultimately, I recommend ACP Erie for students who wish to attend a more academically-rigorous school with a family-like school environment, an excellent, college-readiness education, and various opportunities to achieve their aspirations.

    A very challenging and close-knit school that really pushes my academic strengths and weaknesses while still offering competitive sports, activities, and clubs. A great high school experience!
    Whole Arizona College Prep brags about its academic excellence, the quality of education is lacking. Education is largely dependent on which teachers you get. While some teachers are decent instructors, other expect students to self teach. While I have achieved a 4.0, I do not attribute it to my teachers but rather that I have spent much of my free time teaching myself the material. I truly enjoy learning, ACP’s atmosphere is not conducive to productive learning and is a high stress environment. Interestingly, most students are planning on attending state schools and not more selective ones, which the school brags about. The honor classes here have been far below my expectations, and I can confident that other public high schools could deliver the same quality if not better. I urge anyone considering ACP to decide whether or not they want to spend almost all their free time on homework.
