A MESSAGE FROM:

Adams City High School

2025-2026

Mission Statement: All Adams City High School students will graduate college, career, and community-ready. We want our students to continue to "invest in themselves" now and after graduation. Vision: Our collaborative environment breaks perceived cultural barriers through rigorous learning and foundational skills scholars need to spark their intelligence, ignite their imaginations, and expand their opportunities to become college, career, and community-ready.   Purpose Statement We will ensure h… igh expectations are communicated, and the needed support will be in place for students to meet those high expectations. We will value each student as an individual and ensure equity in access to the curriculum and all experiences and opportunities the high school offers them. Students will learn in a safe, inclusive space where they are able to maximize each learning experience. We will always relentlessly remove barriers to full equity, access, and inclusivity in our curricular and co-curricular program offerings at ACHS. Education is about ''investing in yourself'' for all students and staff at ACHS. Education offers us more choices and pathways to success and allows each of us to find our way in life. We developed small-school linked learning Academies in the 9th grade and a Graduation Profile to ensure that we Inspire, Equip, and Empower our graduates.  Stakeholders were made aware of ESSA identification Comprehensive Support Lowest 5% or that they reviewed the performance of related indicators or provided input on strategies or interventions related to the identification. Population and Demographics Adams City High School is a comprehensive high school located in northeast Commerce City, Colorado. It is the only traditional public high school in the city. The new building for Adams City High School was built in 2010. It embraces the Eagle as the school?s mascot and takes pride in the school colors orange, green, and white. While small businesses line the west side of Quebec Parkway, Adams City High School resides on the east side of Quebec Parkway on undeveloped, rural acreage. Home to approximately 1550 scholars, of which 85.7% qualify for free and reduced lunch, 43.8% are identified as multilingual learners, 12.1% are identified as Special Education, 6.4% are identified as gifted and talented, and 93.6% are of Minority Population. We have had a slight reduction in overall student enrollment of about 50 students over the last year. Most of our scholars will be the first in their families to graduate from high school and attend college. Due to ACHS re-entering its tenth year of Priority Improvement, but our first in Improvement (listed as priority improvement due to our test participation was below 95%), there is a sense of urgency for our administrative team and our teachers. Most importantly, our scholars need to meet performance expectations and to keep the traditions of the Adams City Eagles alive.
