Ken Pickler, Niceville

"The experience and education gained at such an early age is priceless."

Robert K. Downing, Eglin AFB

"To get the best available academic courses and educational instruction in Okaloosa County. . . send your child to the Collegiate High School."

Terry Epps, Shalimar

"The students are treated as adults and they respond with maturity. . . The rigor of the class environment reflects the real world . . . they also have fun. There is a terrific support system in place to help students . . . tutoring is available and very much encouraged, mentorship is a bedrock of the environment and I can't say enough about the enthusiasm and passion of the instructors . . ."

Pat Connolly, Crestview

"In traditions school settings, it was obvious that our daughter was not being challenged academically . . . she was quite literally bored. The Collegiate High School provided an environment where . . . our daughter was always excited to be at school because there was always a member of the faculty or staff challenging her to learn more, think out of the box, or explore new concepts/ideas. In addition to her desire for learning being reignited, she became much more confident and sure of her self in a college environment. She was also exposed to many new concepts and ideas that would have been unavailable to her elsewhere as a high school student. They opened her to a whole new set of possibilities for the future. She has also learned how to have a meaningful discussion/debate with her professors over the merits of a subject.

The significant emphasis on reading and grammar skills far exceeds what you typically see in a traditional high school . . . The continued reemphasis was vitally important in establishing an edge for the future. She is currently a freshman at Cedarville University in Ohio. With the transfer of the credits she earned at CHS, she is an academic junior. You should send your child to the Collegiate High School to develop and increase the critical thinking, problem solving and communication abilities of your child in an academically diverse, yet rigorous, college level environment where every student has a name and every teacher/faculty member cares for the success of that student as if it were their own child."
