Welcome to Poudre Community Academy! 

PCA is an alternative education campus that prioritizes personalized learning approaches, accessible counseling services, and credit recovery. As an Alternative Education Campus, at least 90% of our learners have experienced hardships that qualify them as 'at risk youth.'  Small class sizes at PCA allow us to provide more individualized support and alleviate anxiety. Our school has a CHSAA-sanctioned athletics program. We integrate CTE pathways, service learning and work-based learning opportunities into the daily schedule. We create a comprehensive high school experience on a trauma informed campus, helping students transition from “this is my last chance” to “this is my place.” Our doors are often open 11 hours a day, with clubs, activities, and night school available. Each quarter starts fresh, ending with Experiential Learning Activities like climbing, rafting, and visiting museums to celebrate progress towards graduation. "Strength in Community" is our mission and what defines us as a family of Warriors.  

We take great pride in the success of our students, staff and school.  We welcome any students that are interested in our community to apply!

Vision Statement: PCA will provide a comprehensive high school experience in a supportive, small, trauma informed and alternative environment. We strive to support our students through high school while preparing them for their future.
