We provide a college preparatory education in a supportive environment that fosters the academic mastery and personal development necessary for every student to become a powerful advocate for themselves and a leader in their community. Our school model includes a movement (physical wellness) module in which all students and staff participate, incorporating movement into pedagogy, a team of therapeutic counselors to support all students and families navigate barriers to academic and life success, a core course focused on social, emotional, and leadership development, and an intentional, wellness-focused culture and curriculum for all students.GALS Denver opened in 2010 as the first free, public, gender-based school in the state of Colorado, first as a middle school, and in 2014 added the high school. We currently serve about 350 students between both schools (Middle School grades 6-8, and High School grades 9-12). GALS continues to be the only public all girls school, inclusive of gender non-binary and transgender students, in the state of Colorado. Our model provides an avenue for students to discover and harness their ambitions, and a community in which they can thrive.
