Excellence and equity ... that's our promise.
Consistently ranks as one of the top three performing districts in the state of Colorado.
Each year, BVSD’s graduates are awarded millions of dollars in scholarships and score well above the state and national averages on the ACT and SAT college entrance exams. Boulder Valley students are at the top in the state in the Colorado Student Assessment Program (CSAP) results. In writing and reading, minority student achievement has increased at a higher rate than the general student population. Additionally, Boulder Valley receives at least 47 ratings of “excellent” or “high” each year out of the 58 ratings given on state School Accountability Reports (SARs).
Boulder Valley Schools also receive a tremendous amount of community support. Voters recently approved a tax increase of nearly $300 million for capital improvements to each of our 55 schools over the next six years.
