Located in the southeast portion of the Denver metropolitan area, the 108 square-mile Cherry Creek School District includes the cities of Cherry Hills Village, Glendale, and Foxfield, parts of Aurora, Englewood, Greenwood Village, Centennial and sections of unincorporated Arapahoe County. Two school-year calendars operate in the Cherry Creek School District, both meeting the state requirements. A traditional school year calendar applies at all grade levels. However,9 of the 39 elementary schools are on the 45-15 four-track, year-round calendar. The 39 elementary schools, 10 middle schools, and 6 high schools follow the District's mission: "To inspire every student to think, to learn, to achieve, to care." The elementary curriculum stresses skill and concept development in reading, writing and other language arts, math, science, and social studies. Teachers also emphasize the arts, music, physical education, and computer usage. Middle school instructors continue this emphasis on the academic core, and offer more opportunities in foreign languages, the fine arts, and technology. Students demonstrate computer mastery by the end of eighth grade. The comprehensive high school curriculum ranges from the fundamentals of English, social studies, science, and math to foreign languages, including Spanish, French, German, Chinese, Japanese and Russian, music, practical fine arts, and vocational education. To assess student proficiency, the district administers the Colorado Student Assessment Program (CSAP) at various grade levels, the PLAN to all sophomores and the ACT to all juniors. Both the American College Test (ACT) and Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) show that Cherry Creek students outperform their peers in the nation. Cherry Creek Schools also have many alternative and enrichment opportunities, including Advanced Placement, the International Baccalaureate, Gifted and Talented, and English Language Acquisition programs, as well as an Expeditionary Learning School, Challenge School, and a charter school. At every school, special education teachers, psychologists, social workers, and a nurse serve students' special needs. Athletics and extra-curricular activities abound. Elementary and middle schools offer numerous clubs and enrichment activities. High school students can participate in one or more of 24 coed, interscholastic competitive sports, and many schools also have intramural sport activities. |
