GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Arizona College Prep High School is one of the best public high school in the Chandler Unified School District. One of the best experiences I have had at this school is being on the sidelines cheering for multiple of our athletic teams. The energy that our school's students provide is truly amazing. Honestly, the only thing that is frustrating is the congested halls, but that is just what happens when our school is small compared to other CUSD high schools.

Arizona College Prep overly prepared me for College. All of the teachers want to be there. Most of the students want to learn and love to learn. Their sports programs are getting better every year, it is amazing to see them progress. Depending on what you get in the cafeteria it can be amazing, or horrible, with very little in-between. ACP is a wonderful choice to anyone who wants to be prepared for college and receive full support from those around you with what you want to do in the future.

I have mostly learned how to feel inadequate. This school, in my opinion, falsely claims to be a "college prep". Parents please spare your child the negative experience and enroll them at another institution. I recommend Hamilton High School. Teachers there are very experienced and there are more op...

Not great. The teachers hide behind the facade of it being a college prep school. It seems like teachers want my child do do poorly because their classes are "at a college level". This is especially a problem in the math department. In the end it is not the exams or the homework that has brought my...
