A "Green" Public School, with its own Farm!


    This opening statement reads like a dream of what our schools could be:
"One day, our nation’s brightest minds will be united by a common goal. In the future, scientists, business leaders, artists and mathematicians will combine their most innovative thinking in pursuit of the most important challenge of our times - ensuring a long and healthy life for our planet and the people who share it.


At Denver Green School, the future is now. Our hands-on, real-world curriculum prepares students to excel in the colleges and careers of tomorrow, by combining essential skills mastery and creative problem-solving today."
   Combined with an experiential curriculum rooted in sustainability, is a working 1 acre farm.  This farm provides produce for the cafeteria, a CSA and farm stand for the community, and educational and volunteer opportunities for the students.  It is a Public School approved by the Board of Education in Denver, Colorado.
