The Cherry Creek School District 5, also known as Cherry Creek Public Schools, is a school district located in western Arapahoe County, Colorado. The current superintendent is Christopher Smith. Former superintendent Scott Siegfried, Ph.D. announced his retirement on January 22, 2021.[2] It consists of elementary, middle, and high schools. The district headquarters are in Greenwood Village.

The district serves more than 54,000 children and more 300,000 residents in 108 square miles that spread across seven municipalities.[3] The district serves portions of Aurora and Centennial, which make up its majority. The district also encompasses Foxfield and Glendale, as well as most of Cherry Hills Village, portions of Greenwood Village and Englewood, and adjoining areas of unincorporated Arapahoe County.[4][5]

History

Cherry Creek School District No. 5 was voted into existence in 1950 by residents of seven Arapahoe County school districts. Existing schools in the new district included:

  • Melvin School, currently a schoolhouse museum on the Smoky Hill High School campus
  • Castlewood School, dismantled when I-25 was built and replaced with Belleview Elementary in 1954
  • Cherry Creek Elementary School
  • Cherry Hills Elementary School [6]

CCSD now comprises 42 elementary schools, 10 middle schools and six high schools, in addition to an alternative high school, a magnet school and two charter schools. District enrollment now exceeds 54,200, and the first class of school room instructors has grown to about 3,700 teachers.[7]

In 2022, the district announced that it would discontinue the practice of recognizing valedictorians, starting with the class of 2026.[8]

Institute of Science and Technology

In 2011, the district opened the Institute of Science and Technology, a campus devoted specifically to science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) education. The building, located at 12500 E. Jewell Avenue in Aurora, is part of the Overland High School-Prairie Middle School campus. It serves Overland and Prairie students through a rich and rigorous curriculum.

The school was designed by Hutton Architecture Studio and built by Saunders Construction. Approved by Cherry Creek voters in 2008, the $18 million, 58,000 square foot facility features lines of latitude and longitude on the floors, galaxies of stars on the ceilings, and windows that represent Fibonacci's sequence.[9]
