School Facts

Mission: Denver Academy inspires and empowers diverse learners through student-centered, differentiated, and transformative education.   

History: Founded in 1972, DA has been transforming lives for over 46 years.

Students: 380 students (grades 1-12) attend DA. Our students come from all (religious, racial, and socio-economic) backgrounds. At DA, we embrace individuals who learn at their own pace and in their own unique way. We celebrate each student's gifts and talents.

Educational Program: DA's approach to education is designed so that each of our students can experience a high degree of success. Our pioneering program model serves each student's individual learning profile. Our small class sizes allow us to provide a differentiated approach, honoring student's individual strengths while supporting them in their areas of challenge. 

Faculty: Our committed teachers are the core of our student's success. DA teachers are highly trained to support students in the way they learn best. Teachers are selected for demonstrating qualities that enhance the educational program, including a strong desire to learn, overall commitment to the education of exceptional students, and an intrinsic recognition of the importance of structure, compassion, and accessibility.
