Jeffco Public Schools

Designing a new school takes a whole community. Our Design Advisory Groups (DAGs) work together to bring the school's priorities, values, and culture to the forefront of the design process.

With the first full year of construction under our belts, we are looking forward to 2020. Things are picking up speed for the Jeffco Construction team, as many major school renovations and improvements will begin this year!

The Arvada High School community gathered to kick-off phase 2 of their school improvements with a groundbreaking ceremony for their new auxiliary gym.

The third-floor of Arvada High School has undergone a dramatic transformation. As this first phase of renovations wraps-up, students and staff start the second semester with bigger and brighter learning spaces.

The 2018 voter-approved Jeffco Public Schools bond was passed by voters a little over a year ago and since then, the district has been busy at work. A big year for the Jeffco bond, 2019 saw over $70 million invested in construction and design and $19.8 million delivered to charter schools. More projects will begin in 2020 as facility improvements kickoff to schools districtwide.

Small changes that make a big impact. Jeffco Builds FFE ( (furniture, fixtures, and equipment) are brightening schools across the district.

Capital improvement projects for all students across the district

Summit Ridge Middle School welcomes new addition with ribbon cutting on Sept 25, 2019

Big changes are coming to Wilmot Elementary School this fall as their large building addition and renovation officially kicks-off. The project, funded by the 2018 bond and mill levy initiative, is one of the first in the district to break ground.

New furniture. New athletic fields. New playgrounds. These are the most visible aspects of the 2018 voter-approved bond program. Less visible, but arguably more important, are the installations of safety and security upgrades at schools across the district -- making Jeffco students safer.

Bond funds transformed playground spaces at Jeffco elementary schools this summer. Over at Columbine Hills students were able to be a part of the design process — picking out elements for their new playground. The Belmar School of Integrated Arts is another elementary school getting a new playground, one of eight that are on the list for this first bond spending rollout. 

It was a busy summer of construction across Jeffco as the school district launched the first capital improvement projects.

We are investing $70 million from our bond in 2019 — with significant work completed during the summer months. These dollars have funded improvement projects across our district, including: athletic facility updates, new playgrounds, flooring projects, safety and security upgrades.
