The longest continuously operating charter school in the St. Vrain Valley School District (SVVSD), Twin Peaks Charter Academy 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.

Twin Peaks Charter Academy is a public school that is governed by a seven member Board of Directors. The school's board is elected by parents of the school during annual elections. The school's administration is responsible for daily operations.

Twin Peaks Charter Academy provides students with the foundations of virtue and character, building cultural literacy through a rigorous, content-rich curriculum in an encouraging environment.
