LEGACY OPTIONS HIGH SCHOOL
LEGACY OPTIONS HIGH SCHOOL is a Title I public high school that is part of the School District No. 1 in the county of Denver and State of C school district, located in DENVER, CO with about 92 students offering grade levels from 9th Grade to 12th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 10 teachers, LEGACY OPTIONS HIGH SCHOOL has a student/teacher ratio of about 9:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.
LEGACY OPTIONS HIGH SCHOOL, located in the Green Valley Ranch neighborhood of Denver, is an alternative education campus within the Denver Public Schools (DPS) district. Designed for students who may not thrive in a traditional high school setting, the school focuses on providing a personalized, flexible, and supportive environment. Its mission is to help students who have fallen behind in credits or require a non-traditional approach to complete their high school education, earn their diplomas, and prepare for life after graduation.
The school emphasizes a "student-first" culture that prioritizes strong relationships between staff and pupils. By utilizing smaller class sizes and individualized learning plans, Legacy Options provides the academic and social-emotional support necessary for students to overcome barriers to their education. Whether through credit recovery programs or specialized instruction, the school aims to bridge the gap for students seeking a second chance to reach their full potential within the DPS system.
