Why the Douglas School District Stands Out
• College and Career Readiness
• Honors and Advanced Placement Offerings
• Concurrent Enrollment (students earn college credits while in high school)
• Career and Technical Education (preparing students to enter the workforce directly after graduation)
• International Baccalaureate programs
• A variety of sports, clubs and extracurricular activities
• Advanced Education (such as gifted and talented programs)
• Special Education and related services in alignment with the Individuals With Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) and Colorado’s Exceptional Children’s Education Act (ECEA)
• Early Childhood Education/Preschool Programs (including Universal Preschool)
• Before and After School Programs
DCSD is committed to ensuring that all children have access to the support they need to fulfill their potential and pursue their chosen endeavor in society, whether it’s postsecondary education, career, or military service.
Proud to be Dcsd
• DCSD is the top scoring school district in the Denver/Metro area!
• DCSD is one of the leaders, nationwide, in “blurring the lines” between PK-12 and higher education through our incredible Concurrent Enrollment/Career & Technical Education offerings (over 20K seats!)
• DCSD is ranked number 11 on the list of the 250 “most envied” school districts in the country by Test Prep Insight.
