What's Happening at Traverse Academy
In alignment with our Core Values and our vision of a Pathway of Purpose for every student, CCSD and the Denver NWSL are collectively investing to build soccer fields and a stadium in Centennial.
The Cherry Creek Schools Board of Education has named longtime district volunteer, employee, and former board member Janice McDonald as the newest inductee to the Legacy Stadium Educational Leadership Wall of Fame.
The Cherry Creek School District now has their own band and orchestra instrument repair shop. It's located inside Overland High School and repairs instruments for the nearly 25,000 students in band and orchestra in the district.

Mission & Vision
In Colorado, facilities that serve students in mental health crises or other severe needs have decreased significantly in recent years. In response, the Cherry Creek School District (CCSD), with money from a bond measure approved by voters in 2020, built its own therapeutic mental health facility to serve students in the district. The total cost of the project was $19 million. Through a coordinated partnership with the CU Department of Psychiatry, Traverse Academy will provide an integrated model of care offering intensive therapeutic services along with a full array of educational offerings to help students understand their mental health needs and successfully transition back to their homeschool settings. The program will offer short-term, comprehensive outpatient care aimed at supporting students and their families to learn tools and develop resiliency to manage their student’s mental health care needs and be successful in their educational journey as they find their Pathway of Purpose. The facility opened in October 2023 as the first-in-the-nation program of its kind to be built and operated by a school district.
