The best part about this school is they keep you working. There is rarely a time when I am not working on something, and I know my work isn't a waste of time. With such a rigorous hiring process, we get the best teachers around! Then when it comes time for college, they have got us. With so much help from our counselors and having a previous college rep on our campus to help us, the process is easy. Thanks to this school, it has made my college application process easy and made me a well-rounded person.
Pretty strong but needs work! We're slipping in our ratings. I am a parent of lots of P2P students. We've been in the community since the founding years. We appreciate all the school + excellent teachers give students. It is awesome to witness the positive development of students in their journey through this k-12 school. Yet, would like to see more parent-donated funds benefitting classrooms and teachers instead of conference rooms. Supporting student innovation instead of administrative. Would like to see P2P return to being more of the founders vision of a student-focused school where, as John F. Kennedy said "a rising tide lifts all boats".
Peak is does an amazing job preparing people for college and applying to them.
If you're academically orientated, it'll feel like you're swimming in a pool of sharks, unless you're at the top of your class. If you're not into academics then you'll probably wonder why you're even here.
The teachers are excellent and pay attention to each student. The workload is heavy and time consuming. There's hardly ever busywork and the homework is helpful. But the amount I get makes me want to tap my head against the wall and stay up late nights on a regular basis, and the feeling is mostly mutual among the other students.
School spirit is nonexistent. The people are friendly and bullying basically does not exist. But aside from that they are very cliquey and the atmosphere can easily feel suffocating.
This school will not give you a good "high school experience," but it is good for academically motivated people. Just be prepared to sacrifice your time and entire experience for academics.
