[student] "And then we can extend it upward..."  Welcome to Durango School District,  and innovative educational system committed to excellence.  We have welcoming schools, caring teachers, and a dedicated staff. Our high-performing district is located in La Plata County in Southwest Colorado at the foot of the beautiful La Plata and San Juan mountains. Durango is  a friendly,  vibrant,  mountain town with the Animas River coursing through. Our students have ample opportunities for hands-on learning and activities in the great outdoors. We serve approximately 4,400 students in eight elementary schools,  two middle schools,  two high schools, and online and homeschool options.  The district has nearly 900 staff and is a great place to work. Our 440 dedicated teachers form the essential foundation to help our achieve academic success. Our primary goal is to help every student achieve their goal and purpose in life. We helped them find a pathway that combines their passions and talents into a career that the meet. Our district is unified by Portrait of a Graduate, a shared vision of qualities our graduates need to become positive contributors to society and have a good quality of life. Superintendent  Dr. Karen Cheser, says Portrait of a Graduate adapts the traditional model of education to evolve in an ever-changing world. We invite you to connect: parents enroll your child, teachers join our team,  community members support education initiatives. Everyone can be a part of the Durango School District, a community committed to innovation and excellence in education.
