Addenbrooke Classical Grammar School

Addenbrooke Classical Academy (often referred to as Addenbrooke Classical Grammar School) is a K-12 public charter school located in Lakewood, Colorado. The school distinguishes itself through a rigorous, content-rich classical education model designed to foster academic excellence, character development, and a strong sense of civic responsibility. By focusing on a traditional liberal arts curriculum, the school emphasizes mastery of core subjects—such as mathematics, science, history, and literature—while incorporating the study of primary source documents and the Socratic method to encourage critical thinking and intellectual growth.

Beyond academics, Addenbrooke places a heavy emphasis on a culture of excellence and high moral standards. The school environment is structured to promote personal accountability, virtue, and a sense of community among students, faculty, and families. Because it is a charter school, it operates with a degree of autonomy that allows it to maintain its distinct classical identity while remaining tuition-free and accessible to the public, serving families who seek a structured, historically-informed approach to K-12 education.
