School Choice
We participate in School Choice. Whether you're living in or out of district boundaries, you may select the best school option for your child. School Choice is offered based on space availability at each school.
High Achieving
We have earned numerous awards and recognitions and have been Accredited with Distinction by the Colorado Department of Education since 2009.
Growth
A growing district, we’ve added approximately 7,000 students since 2003 and anticipate adding 5,000 by 2028.
To support growth we passed a $230 million bond measure in 2016. The bond funding is providing improvements to all our schools. This funding has allowed us to build Legacy Peak Elementary School, Chinook Trail Middle School, a permanent home for School in the Woods, the Center for Modern Learning, and a new elementary school, Encompass Heights.
An $83 million bond was passed in 2024 to rebuild our schools located on the U.S. Air Force Academy. In conjunction with the U.S. Department of Defense, our district gained access to an additional $191 million to support these projects. Bond funds from 2024 also support our two charter schools, The Classical Academy and New Summit Charter Academy.
