About Our School...
Arizona College Preparatory opened its doors in 2007 becoming Chandler Unified School District’s first secondary school-of-choice offering students a safe and personalized touch to learning. This year, Arizona College Prep is enrolling students in grades 9 through 12. Arizona College Preparatory is consistently ranked among the best high schools in the nation by U.S. News & World Report and the Washington Post as well as the state of Arizona.
Founded on academic rigor and strong discipline, students receive the personalized education that many families yearn for and some students need in a smaller academic setting. Students can look forward to dedicated instruction from Highly Qualified Teachers who specialize and are certified in the subject area they teach. The school’s foundation was developed through the hard work and passion of students, teachers, parents and community representatives.
― Rob Bickes, Principal
