Donations/Giving

At Caprock Academy, we are a community focused on both our Caprock Family and our larger community in the Grand Valley. We endeavor to be good stewards of our school, our land, and to create service projects giving back to our community and making a difference in people's lives. Our Core Values are Academics, Character, and Accountability. We create a safe school environment where students can focus on learning and build their personal integrity. Caprock students are motivated and educated to be college of choice ready when they graduate from high school.

Cultivating what matters for children to reach their highest academic and character potential is the foundation of Caprock Academy Charter Public School. Your support helps ensure a classical education with core knowledge curriculum and character-driven student accountability in a safe environment.

Campus Safety Project - Summer & Fall 2023

On Thursday, May 25, our school community celebrated the end of another successful school year. While all Caprock students work hard all year, our graduating seniors deserve special recognition as they move onto new goals, new adventures, and a continued pursuit of the “Good Life.” Thank you, Seniors, for enriching our school community.

As we move into summer break and look forward to barbeques, river floats, time with family, and water fights, the facilities team at Caprock will be gearing up for several notable upgrades. In January 2023, the school won over $110,000.00 to upgrade exterior lighting through a competitive grant awarded by the Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Management – Department of Public Safety. Work on this project should be completed over the summer.

In other security news, one of our very own Caprock Academy families has committed $25,000.00 to install security sensors throughout the campus. These sensors will help collect air and pressure wave samples to monitor everything from air quality to gun-shot detection. We intend to complement these security sensors with an array of cameras. Cameras will be installed in public areas and will not be utilized in private spaces such as bathrooms or individual classrooms.

We estimate the total project cost (exterior lighting + security sensors + cameras + annual maintenance) to be $177,000.00. So far, we have raised $135,000.00. With your help, we know we can raise the remaining $42,000.00 needed to complete the full project. As we commence our carefree summer days, we hope we can count on your support to complete this project. When students return to school July 24, we want the focus to be on Character, Accountability, and Academics. Your donation to the Halo Smart Sensor and Campus Surveillance Project brings us one step closer to building the foundation for many more successful years to come.

Pay Off Our Building

Caprock Academy, like many other public charter schools across the country, does not get equivalent funding for its building, facilities, and infrastructure costs due to state laws. Every year, public charter schools like Caprock seek this funding from state legislators and contend with other schools for these funds. As a result, Caprock continues to absorb these costs year after year. If Caprock were able to pay off this significant piece of its financial obligation, it would permit the school to focus even further on refining the quality of its academic curriculum. Your financial contribution would go a long way to help sustain Caprock’s excellence in education. You may select from a number of specific projects, or make a general contribution. Your monetary contributions will be tax deductible.
