Description

http://www.dpsfoundation.org The Denver Public Schools (DPS) Foundation was established in 1992 in recognition of the fact that public funds alone cannot adequately support the ambitious efforts to advance student achievement in Denver Public Schools. The DPS Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization governed by a volunteer board of directors and supported by private foundations, corporations, parents, alumni, DPS employees and other members of the community. The DPS Foundation directed nearly $10 million to Denver Public Schools for priority programs and critical needs last year alone. Our current efforts and resources are focused on the following: Driving student success and closing achievement gaps. Extending the school day with valuable hours of learning and enrichment. Supporting healthy students and exceptional learning environments. Providing adequate resources for teachers and classrooms. Fostering outstanding leadership in our schools.
