Campion Academy

What Campion Academy does

Campion Academy is a private Seventh-day Adventist Christian boarding and day high school founded in 1907 in Loveland, Colorado, serving students in grades 9 through 12. It operates as a nonprofit institution under the Rocky Mountain Conference of Seventh-day Adventists, with triple accreditation from the Adventist Accrediting Association, the National Council for Private School Accreditation, and the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools. The school maintains a 7:1 student-teacher ratio across a faculty/staff of approximately 25-30, and enrolls both domestic boarding and day students as well as international students, with a dedicated four-level English Language Learner (ELL) program and a China-based recruitment office.

The school's core academic product is a college-preparatory curriculum supplemented by dual-credit courses offered through a partnership with Union Adventist University (six transferable courses covering subjects from Human Anatomy & Physiology to Calculus and Psychology 101), with an Advanced College Preparatory Diploma track enabling students to earn up to nine semester hours of college credit before graduation. The technology stack is built on standard third-party education platforms — RenWeb for student information and online grades, Google Classroom for learning management, LibraryWorld for library cataloging, Turn It In for plagiarism detection, and Kuder Navigator for career guidance — with no proprietary technology development. Auxiliary programs include performing arts (orchestra, chorale, Koinonia select choir, jazz band, handbells, drama productions), varsity athletics (soccer, basketball, volleyball, baseball), an Outdoor Club leveraging Rocky Mountain National Park access, an Acquainting Agriculture vocational program, and a work-study program.

Revenue is generated primarily through tuition and fees, supplemented by an Annual Fund, a Legacy Endowment currently at $4.3 million against a $10 million goal, student scholarship endowments, a capital endowment fund, a work-study program that offsets approximately $2,400-$2,500 per student per year, and ancillary channels including an RERewards real estate referral program and an Amazon Smile fundraiser. Published tuition is approximately $10,000 per year less than the actual cost per student, with the gap subsidized by the Rocky Mountain Conference and donations. Over 75% of students receive some form of financial assistance, and additional aid flows through a KS-NE Conference scholarship (up to $6,000), FACTS-managed need-based grants (up to $6,000), and church matching grants (up to $1,500 per year). The go-to-market motion combines direct-to-consumer enrollment via RenWeb online applications, event-driven campus tours, and community-led alumni referrals anchored on annual Alumni Weekend programming.
