BRADY EXPLORATION SCHOOL

BRADY EXPLORATION SCHOOL is a public high school that is part of the Jefferson County School District No. R-1 school district, located in LAKEWOOD, CO with about 286 students offering grade levels from 9th Grade to 12th Grade. With about 20 teachers, BRADY EXPLORATION SCHOOL has a student/teacher ratio of about 14:1. 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.

BRADY EXPLORATION SCHOOL, located in Lakewood, Colorado, is a specialized secondary school within the Jefferson County Public School District. It is designed to serve students who may benefit from a more personalized, flexible, and supportive educational environment than what is typically offered in a traditional comprehensive high school. The school focuses on credit recovery and accelerated learning, aiming to help students who have fallen behind or who thrive in smaller, non-traditional settings reach graduation requirements efficiently.

The school’s curriculum is centered on a competency-based model, which allows students to progress at their own pace rather than adhering to a rigid, time-based semester schedule. By fostering a close-knit community with smaller class sizes, Brady emphasizes strong teacher-student relationships and social-emotional support. The goal of the program is to provide students with the academic tools, career exploration opportunities, and personal resilience necessary to succeed after high school, whether they are pursuing higher education, vocational training, or direct entry into the workforce.
