At Lena Archuleta Elementary, we are a community committed to success for all through hard work, love and inspiration. We have high expectations for academic achievement and behavior, and our students excel in meeting these expectations each year. In 2021-22, and then again in 2025, we were named a "Best Elementary School" by US News. We earned this honor by being ranked within the top 25 schools in DPS out of all elementary and middle schools, and in the top 30% of schools in Colorado. In May 2023, we were awarded the Governor's Distinguished Improvement Award for exceptional growth on the School Performance Framework. Our staff cultivates each student’s unique skills and talents, knowing that all of our students have brilliant minds. Lena Archuleta emphasizes college and career readiness by ensuring that students leave our school prepared for middle school. We provide many opportunities for enrichment, including STEM club. We are the Highly Gifted and Talented magnet school in the Far Northeast and also offer Transitional Native Language Instruction programming. We have Gifted and Talented, Spanish and traditional English classrooms at every grade level. Contact Escalante-Biggs for ECE and kindergarten.

Student Survey Results

The student survey, known as Your Voice / Tu Voz was completed with students in Spring of 2025. These data were obtained by a Colorado Open Records Act (CORA) request to Denver Public Schools (DPS).  Questions were sorted into topic areas based on prior DPS reports and the results we report reflect the percent of all responses that were in the top two most positive categories for each question, such as "strongly agree" and "agree".  Parent results are only presented where at least 30 responses were available.  Student results are only presented where at least 30 responses were available or the approximated response rate for the school was 50% or greater.

Unified Improvement Plan: Priority Performance Challenges

Unified Improvement Planning was introduced in 2009 to streamline improvement planning components of state and federal accountability requirements. Based on the Colorado Achievement Plan for Kids (SB212-08), the primary purpose of improvement planning is to align efforts to: Ensure all students exit the K-12 education system ready for post-secondary education, and/or to be successful in the workforce, earning a living wage immediately upon graduation. The School Finder only contains one portion of the UIP, each school's Priority Performance Challenges. To access any school's complete UIP, you can visit: School and District UIPs
