The Connect Charter School

Excellence With A Purpose

The Connect Charter School (CNS) is a student-centered school where we prioritize engagement and authenticity in all our programs. Most importantly we know how to leverage local assets including parks, public spaces, museums, and businesses. Located squarely in the heart of Pueblo, we get out of our building to practice what is called Place-Based Education. We effectively and powerfully use the CITY AS CAMPUS. As one business owner stated, CNS students “bring life to the center of Pueblo.” In return, the school uses its city resources to enrich curriculum, provide unique experiences, and help our students understand “The Power of Place.” We interact with adults and the adult environment in ways that other schools can only read about. Our civic and service based projects are essential to the social and emotional growth of our students and staff.

Hear it from our parents!

“I have been in education for 28 years, I am frustrated daily with continuous distractions, disruptions, and redirects hourly. The lack of rules and administration in public schools allow this. I feel so lucky to have my son at Connect! I know there are very few distractions at Connect. The rules and guidelines used at Connect make this possible! I applaud the Administration and Staff for a job done right! Thanks for all you do for my son!❤️”

A PROUD PARENT OF A STUDENT AT CONNECT

“By far the best school in Pueblo. I was lucky enough to attend and still cherish those days some 20+ years later. I attended Connect for middle school, and it helped prepare me for college and the real world far more than most anything else did, including high school.”
