About The Academy of Arts & Knowledge Elementary School
Academy of Arts & Knowledge is a tuition-free public charter school in Fort Collins, CO serving preschool through 5th grade — where every child is unapologetically themselves. Our arts-integrated curriculum weaves visual art, music, drama, and movement into every subject, so kids develop as creative thinkers AND strong readers, writers, and mathematicians. Small class sizes mean teachers truly know each child. We offer full-day Kindergarten–5th grade, Pre-Kindergarten (3 & 4 year olds), and extended day care through our Community Learning Center — open 7am–5:30pm. Families choose AAK because it feels like a community, not just a school. We're proud to be free and open to all Fort Collins families through our public lottery enrollment.

This school is absolutely amazing they go above and beyond for all the students and have been so welcoming from the very first day. Even with COVID they have still done everything to ensure these kids come first and are learning as smoothly as possible. Cannot recommend them enough!! Thankyou AAK
