How to Enroll

Important reminder for TRANSCRIPTS OF TRANSFER STUDENTS:

The CMSD12 Board of Education believes that the Cheyenne Mountain High School transcript should be a full and accurate representation of a student’s academic performance while enrolled at CMHS. 

  • Domestic & Local Students from an Accredited School; Given the wide-range of grading and reporting policies among other schools and school districts, the CMHS transcript will include only course titles and letter grades assigned as reported by the previous accredited school. Grade point averages and class rank will be calculated and reported in accordance with Board policy, regardless of weights, rankings, or other criteria assigned by a previous school. 

  • International, Homeschooled & Non-Accredited schooled Students; Students transferring from international schools or without a transcript from an accredited high school program (including homeschool), will have grades included on the CMHS transcript only as “pass” or “fail.” The school will be noted as the source for these transcript entries. CMHS counselors will follow the adopted processes for granting graduation credit for those courses taken outside of CMHS. No guarantees exist for accepting credits if there is not a close match of the core content of the courses to the CMHS course requirements. The CMHS principal has the final decision on coursework that is applied to the CMHS transcript and the match with graduation credits. **Students who have been enrolled in a Homeschool / Home-based Educational Program for any part of their high school years will not be eligible for Class Ranking nor Honor Graduate status. This exemption will remain in effect throughout the student’s Cheyenne Mountain High School career.
