Rocky Mountain Prep

The RMP Promise

Rocky Mountain Prep is a movement of educators, families, scholars, and advocates committed to changing public education in Colorado by democratizing college access for historically marginalized students and families. We operate twelve college-preparatory schools serving students from early childhood through twelfth grade, and we are fundamentally a world-class learning organization that invests deeply in every educator who joins us. Teachers engage in ongoing coaching and professional development, supported by clear expectations, transparent feedback, and opportunities to strengthen their craft and advance along individualized career pathways grounded in our PEAK values. Rooted in a culture of rigor and love, RMP promises to coach, develop, and champion every team member so they can do their best work and grow as professionals, people, and leaders.

Our Approach to College & Career Readiness

At Rocky Mountain Prep, we believe college and career readiness requires early, intentional planning grounded in high expectations and individualized support. Academic Advisors partner with students and families to ensure every scholar graduates with a clear, ambitious post-secondary plan. Through data-driven advising and relationship-centered coaching, advisors guide students in navigating college admissions, career pathways, and credentialing opportunities that lead to economic mobility. They monitor academic progress, identify barriers, and connect students to targeted supports to ensure success. Advisors also lead systems that promote college access, including family education, college partnerships, and exposure opportunities such as campus visits and workshops. By building strong relationships and leveraging data to inform decisions, Academic Advisors play a critical role in fulfilling RMP’s Graduate Guarantee and ensuring every student is prepared to thrive beyond high school.


Academic Advisors at Rocky Mountain Prep will…

• Provide individualized, group, and family-based college and career counseling to ensure all students graduate with a clear post-secondary plan
• Support students in course selection, ensuring alignment to graduation requirements, academic goals, and advanced coursework opportunities (e.g., AP, Concurrent Enrollment)
• Monitor student academic progress and proactively intervene through targeted supports, resources, and partnerships
• Lead the college application process, including essay development, resume building, financial aid guidance, and recommendation coordination
