Pikes Peak Christian School

What Pikes Peak Christian School does

Pikes Peak Christian School (PPCS) is a private Christian K-12 institution operating a single campus at 5905 Flintridge Drive in Colorado Springs, Colorado. It serves students across preschool, elementary, middle school, and high school programs, supplemented by an international student program and a Non-Traditional Athlete Program that allows homeschool, charter, and other private school students to participate in its athletics. The school is dually accredited by Cognia and the National Christian Schools Association (NCSA), which supports transcript portability and quality signaling.

The school's core offering is a faith-based K-12 education. Programmatic differentiators include before & after care ($5.75/hr enrolled, $6.00/hr drop-in), high school athletic participation at $290 per sport, and athletic co-op partnerships with St. Mary's High School (football) and Evangel Christian Academy (baseball). The technology stack is composed of standard third-party administrative and athletic platforms — FACTS/School Site for tuition and school information, Brightwheel for parent communication, ArbiterSports/PlanetHS for game scheduling and pay-to-play, Praxi/TeamReach for team communication, and MaxPreps, CHSAA, and Milesplit for sports coverage and results. No proprietary technology is described.

Revenue mechanics rely on tuition and ancillary fees across preschool through high school, with additional income from the international student program, before & after care, and athletic fees. The school's senior leadership includes Matt Johns (School Director & HS Principal) and JJ Johnson (Athletic Director). Tuition levels, enrollment size, and financial results are not publicly disclosed, and the institution operates without external funding events.
