Grades Served: 6
DSST's first middle school in Aurora, Colorado opened in the fall of 2019. Aurora Science & Tech (AST) will build one grade each year, reaching a 6-12 student body at full build out.
Middle school science classes are “the perfect time and age to work with students to develop their inquisitive mind and pursue fascinating topics that hook them into learning in a new way,” says DSST: Cole Middle School science teacher, Emily Burkhardt.
