History

The longest continuously operating school in the St. Vrain district, TPCA was established in the fall of 1997 by a group of dedicated parents who wanted a richer, more academically rigorous educational opportunity for their children. 

TPCA’s home until late 2009 was the Main Street School, a historically significant building that housed the original Longmont High School and, which, served as a school on and off since the 1920s. The iconic site helped establish TPCA as the premier charter school in Longmont and surrounding areas. 

The 80,000ft2 facility contains a wealth of amenities including ample room for grades K-8, exceptionally well-equipped art and music rooms, state-of-the-art science and computer labs and abundant library/media resources. The beautiful new gymnasium, auditorium and common areas perfectly complement the academic facilities and enhance the entire education experience.  

Mission
