Thank you for all of your hard work during the last seven months -- it’s hard to believe we are at the end of March. I’m so proud of the work we’ve done on behalf of our students and families. We have embraced the continual discomfort of excellence, and your work is making a genuine difference in the lives of our students. There is much to be proud of and a lot of work that we need to continue to do to get better.

At Our Core: Celebrating Cole's Class of 2018
In 2004, DPS Cole Middle School became the first and only school in Colorado to be “Taken Over” by the Colorado Department of Education. Following state law, the Board of Education awarded a contract to a charter school management organization with the hope they could turn things around. But three years later, the CMO ended the contract, handed control of the school back to DPS having not achieved the success it promised.

Landed down-payment assistance now available
DSST is excited to announce that our partnership with Landed is now finalized, and staff members can turn in applications for down-payment assistance to buy a house in the Denver area.Landed (landed.com), provides half of an educator's down payment, up to $80,000. There are no monthly payments on this support, instead educators will share in the gain (or loss, if any) of their home when they sell or refinance.
