At Avance High School, you’re not just another number. You’re a unique individual with limitless potential. And we can’t wait to help you design your future. 

A History of
Academic Excellence

Avance High School is new. But our teachers have a track record of helping students achieve their best selves—academically, socially, emotionally, and professionally. 

Avance is Chicanos Por La Causa’s (CPLC) new Community High School. CPLC was founded in 1969 out of the Chicano and farmworker rights movements. In 1995, we identified a need in Arizona for a smaller school experience and created our school district, CPLC Community Schools. 

Our small teacher-to-student class sizes allow our teachers to provide individualized attention. And thanks to our holistic care model, 100% of on-track students at our CPLC Community Schools graduate. You read that correctly: we provide the support to make sure everyone who stays engaged is ready to advance.
