Choosing a Denver Public School
Denver Public Schools recognizes that each child learns
differently. To help meet students’ unique needs and ensure
their success in school, the district offers a wide array of
programs and special schools.
Students may enroll in any school in the district, regardless
of where they live, if there is space available and they meet
the entrance requirements. The best thing to do is visit a few
schools that are of interest to you and your child. To locate
your neighborhood school, call the School Boundary Hotline
at (720) 423-3400, or search online by entering your home
address at http://www.dpsk12.org.
For more information about DPS Schools, request an
Enrollment Guide today, at (720) 423-3300.
