Field Experiences

Each year, the regular classroom curriculum is enhanced through field experiences. Every class participates in field trips to many different locations. Students are able to go the museum, zoo, Bluff Lake, Littleton Historical Museum, Ocean Journey and Colorado History Museum to name a few. The most extensive field trip is for fifth grade students. Each year, the fifth grade students go on a four-day trip across Colorado. The purpose of the trip is to learn about the history and geography of the state. The students visit places such as the Colorado National Monument, Mesa Verde, and the Sand Dunes. The trip is funded through the generosity of a local businessman.


After School Classes


Students are able to participate in after school classes. Through ArtReach and the Denver Center for the Performing Arts, students are able to take advantage of art and theater classes.


Enrichment Activities


Each year, the school sponsors three activities for our students. Students may participate in the Science Fair, Young Authors and the Art Show.


Parent Involvement


Throughout the year, parents are invited to participate in activities that support the educational environment, provide family fun and are of community interest. Parents are always welcome at Garden Place Academy.
