They are running this school into the ground at an alarming pace. Families are fleeing under the current administration. Our son was being sexually harassed constantly by some kids in his class and we were laughed at by Mrs. Blair and Mr. Randall when we brought it up (We have them on a voice recording doing this and the school still did nothing). They refused to take this seriously and our sons mental health suffered because of this. We were told by the administration that Vanguard was a choice school and we could go elsewhere if we didn't like it. The school refused to do anything until we threatened to go to the media and started a Title 9 Investigation. That investigation found repeated evidence that these kids were sexually harassing students in the classroom so they quietly moved them to another classroom and did nothing else to apologize. Administrators play favorites and will disrespect and treat children they do not like poorly. They favor the staff children for activities, sports, and all other extracurricular activities. They refuse to hire any additional guidance counselors and rely on one for the entire school. They do not take the kids mental health seriously and have nothing in place to help kids suffering with depression and bullying. If there is an instance of bullying they will move that child to another class where they can find more students to pick on and have no repercussions. Like many of the other families that are leaving this school we have removed our children from this toxic environment and are going to a different school district. It also looks as if google is removing/not posting negative reviews about this school.

We were very excited to start in the fall, but unfortunately some family emergencies came up and we are not longer able to attend. Upon reaching out to the school to receive a refund for the application, which mind you it's OVER $200!!!! We were told it wasn't possible to get back. After speaking to Kaitlyn she stated we took a spot from another student and that's the reason we will not receive a refund. Even though they can reach out to another family from their waiting list and even though that family will ALSO HAVE TO PAY. You call yourselves Christian but will steal money from families? Thank you for showing us your true colors before my child even stepped foot into your school. To anyone reading this please consider somewhere else. The office staff is so unprofessional and inconsiderate and I most definitely don't want my child around adult who act like that.

[ 3.5* Review ] I'm…read moregrateful I had the chance to start my academic journey at Pikes Peak State College, where I completed my Associate's Degree. My experience has a mix of positives, meaningful strengths, as well as areas that could be improved and frustrations, which is why I feel a three-plus* star rating reflects it honestly and is fair. *Positive Aspects* Being connected to multiple campuses gave me access to diverse professors, inspiring instructors, and well-designed classes. Even though I studied fully online, I always had access to academic advisors, supportive counselors, and helpful IT support. Whenever I didn't understand something, I could reach out directly to instructors, teachers, operators, or talk things with classmates in group chats, which made the online format feel more connected. Their majors and electives were interesting, and the classes were structured in a way that made learning enjoyable. One tip for future students: don't overload yourself with too many classes at once. Giving yourself space for research, homework, tutoring, and life outside of school makes a huge difference. Another highlight was the support available around graduation time. It was great to have access to career scouts, the ability given to attend career fairs, connect through honor societies, and mix and mingle at graduation-related events across different campuses and arenas with fellow graduates, professionals, and likeminded individuals. *Negative Aspects* My college inbox was constantly hit with random scams and spam (unwanted emails), which meant I had to keep sorting, blocking, and reporting them. Communication wasn't always consistent - some students responded unprofessionally, and some instructors didn't respond as promptly as promised. I also had a few back-and-forth issues with the campus bookstore. On some occasions, certain digital or open educational resources were free of charge! Yejjj! ;) At other times though, I was billed more than expected for required study materials, supplies, and taxes.. ! :/ In one case, I was even billed for books for a class that ended up being cancelled, which was very frustrating.. Thus, the biggest issue for me was the drop policy. Be aware that if you drop a class after just a little more than 10 days, you're charged the full cost of the course. I really wish the school would extend this decision window to three or four weeks, giving students a fair chance to determine whether a class is manageable without being financially locked in so early. Otherwise, your only option later is withdrawing and ending up with a W on your transcript. *Overall* The Northern campus is gorgeous to visit, featuring a top view and ample parking! The staff members and faculty are supportive and welcoming. Despite the challenges, I'm happy I earned my Associate's Degree here. It is wonderful to be able to transfer forward with an accredited credential and continue my education. The journey can look tricky at times, but it (is) doable - and ultimately rewarding!
