Denver Public Schools earned a preliminary Accredited (Green) rating on the Colorado Department of Education’s District Performance Framework for the second year in a row.

This rating reflects progress in student academic achievement, growth and readiness for college and career. This year, 94 DPS schools received a Performance (Green) rating, and 11 schools are exiting the state accountability clock.

This progress is the result of the work of DPS students, families, educators, school leaders, staff and communities.
