ABOUT OUR SCHOOL:

Excel Academy is a charter public school of choice serving 500 students in kindergarten through 8th grade within Jeffco Public Schools. Our custom-built 21st-century facility and campus is located in beautiful northwest Arvada, Colorado, just one block south of Standley Lake Regional Park and surrounded by the Michael Northey Park. Founded in 1995, Excel Academy is a collaboration of students, educators, and parents who cultivate independent, life-long learners. We promote excellence through a rigorous and engaging curriculum that is delivered in a flexible and appropriate manner for each child. Our school utilizes a variety of intentionally-adopted curricula and flexible instructional strategies to differentiate and support each student in becoming an increasingly self-directed learner within a respectful learning environment. Strong parental involvement, small class sizes, character education, and restorative practices help our students exemplify our core SOAR values of Self Discipline, Outstanding Effort, Acceptance of Others, and Resilience. 

We seek educational professionals who embrace these ideals to join our growing community. Our school is in a phase of mission-based transformational growth and development of our school’s vision for the future. If you feel alignment with these principles, excitement about being part of shaping the school’s future, and passion for inspiring students and contributing to Excel Academy’s pursuit of excellence, we invite you to apply.
