Arapahoe Ridge High School

 

 About Our School


Arapahoe Ridge High School is a focus school designed to include career-related coursework as well as academics through a variety of instructional options. These options include Ridge, and Newcomers.

The Ridge approach is designed to meet the needs of students at any point in their high school career. Students who have recently arrived in the U.S., have not received educational services here and qualify according to the language assessment, have the option of enrolling in Newcomers, which is an ESL program.

All students who graduate from the Ridge program receive a technical certificate in one of the career areas offered. Students in the other programs have the option of enrolling in technical classes and receiving a certificate.

 

 School Mission and Vision


Mission: to be a technical and career oriented focus school with an emphasis on high academic standards.
