Student demographics can be found below. With about 39 teachers, OPTIONS SCHOOL has a student/teacher ratio of about 27:1. 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.

OPTIONS SCHOOL, located on Montview Boulevard in Aurora, Colorado, is a specialized educational facility within the Aurora Public Schools district designed to serve students who require a non-traditional approach to learning. The school is primarily recognized as an alternative program, offering a flexible and supportive environment for students who may have struggled in a traditional comprehensive high school setting. Its mission centers on providing a personalized academic path that helps students overcome barriers to graduation, gain credit recovery, and ultimately earn their high school diplomas.

The campus functions as a resource-heavy environment where smaller class sizes and individualized attention are prioritized to foster student engagement. By focusing on social-emotional support alongside academic instruction, OPTIONS SCHOOL aims to re-engage students who have fallen behind or who benefit from a more tailored, self-paced curriculum. The program is committed to helping its diverse student body prepare for life after high school, whether they are transitioning into post-secondary education, vocational training, or the workforce.
