Academic Excellence for Every Student
As we collectively work toward academic advancement for every student in our district, our purpose statement is the foundation for our initiatives.
Englewood Schools District Purpose Statement
Englewood Schools has a moral imperative and unwavering commitment to ensure extraordinary outcomes for each student. Diversity is an asset. We are committed to honoring students' identities, cultures, and abilities, while breaking down barriers to a safe and equitable learning experience. In service of this, we maintain high expectations and nurture all aspects of the whole child.

- Community workshops: resources to honor diversity at home and in the community
- Student workshops: learning that builds 21st century skills for students to engage in a diverse global community with empathy, self-awareness, and a discerning lens.
