About Silverton 1 (2820)
A MESSAGE FROM:
Silverton 1
2024-2025
Located deep in the heart of the San Juan Mountains in Southwest Colorado, the Silverton School District is one of the most rural and isolated school districts in the state. It is also one of the smallest with an average of 70-75 K-12 students enrolled in any given year. Our Elementary, Middle, and High Schools are all located with the same 110-year-old 3 story red brick school building. All of our classes are multi-age and multi-grade with cllass combinations of K-1st grade, 2nd-3rd grade, 4t…
h-5th grade, Middle School (6th-8th grades), and High School (9th-10th grades).   By necessity, we share teachers and staff and resources across grade levels. We may, for example, have a single teacher who teaches HS Art, teaches an elementary math class, and works with MS students on writing skills. The majority of our teachers have multiple teaching endorsements and are highly qualified in multiple areas. This versatility amongst the teaching staff allows us to keep our arms around all of our students and creates an expanded array of intervention options for our students.  We use a student centered and experiential approach at all levels K-12 and in all subject matters. Our curriculum is vibrant, project based, and grounded in the real world. Each year our students embark on new learning expeditions in Social students and Science that are based on the Colorado State standards for each grade level. These learning expeditions use compelling topics, high quality projects, authentic audiences, fieldwork and experts to bring learning to life in rigorous and exciting ways. Our focus on social-emotional learning builds a safe and respectful environment and helps our students develop their character.  It is the mission of staff and faculty to create dynamic classes of talented, involved, and responsible students. Silverton seeks to help every student become academically strong with skills, interests, and experiences that will enhance classes and contribute to the life of the school in a variety of areas. With low student to teacher ratios, our kids get private education in a public school setting. We strive to bring value through diversity and fresh perspectives to our community .  We are a nexus of engagement for our students, their families , and the community as a whole.  We have strong partnerships with local community groups, non profit organizations, and businesses. These partnerships help us provide diverse learning experiences for all of our students.
