We are a school in a large urban city in Colorado. Our students are remarkable thinkers and learners in a 6-8 middle school. Our school is large, with almost 950 students, and about 35 kids per class. We are very diverse with many language spoken at our school. There are many kids at an economical disadvantage and we work hard to support those students. We are moving to become an MYP (International Baccalaureate) school and are in a transition year. We very much want to create critical thinkers and problem solvers.
