DSST Strategic Plan 2028

Charting the path to generational impact.

DSST Public Schools believes in eliminating educational inequity and preparing all students for success in college and the 21st century. DSST is committed to ensuring that each and every student has access to rigorous and rich STEM and college-preparatory academics, experiences and education that prepare them not only to succeed in college but ultimately to break systemic barriers and create multi-generational change. 

Over the course of the 2020–22 school years, DSST conducted a deep review of the organization and the metro Denver landscape to create a five-year plan that addresses the needs and demands of its community. DSST is excited to share some of the most important findings and chart the path forward with you.
