Mission:

Students will realize their full potential, appreciate the relevance of their education, be excited to learn, and be empowered for success. This sets a tone of high achievement for all and a clear challenge to meet the needs of all students; gaining and building on their success and development not only as a student, but also as a contributing member to society. We truly believe that if you can not accomplish the goal of true excellence here, you cannot accomplish it anywhere. The Aspen School District consists of a Preschool, Elementary School, Middle School, High School, and a Community School.

About Us:

Aspen Community School is a charter school of the Aspen School District that has been providing progressive educational opportunities to K-8 students since 1970. We believe that a small student-teacher ratio combined with an integrated, thematic curriculum provides a unique and effective way to meet our goals of lifelong learning, social justice, community participation, and personal responsibility. The Aspen Community School is a public school, charges no tuition, and reflects the Aspen School District's commitment to educational choice.
