About Denver Academy
4400 E Iliff Ave, Denver, CO
Denver Academy (DA) is pleased to announce that after years of planning and research, its Board of Directors has approved a two-phased construction project titled Building on Excellence. On May 1, DA held a groundbreaking ceremony and celebration for Phase One of this construction which will begin once the 2017-18 school year is complete in June and continue through early 2019.
Phase One construction includes a new Athletic Facility located on the southeast corner of Denver Academy’s 22-acre campus, adjacent to Richardson Hall. The 25,000 square-foot facility will have a regulation varsity-sized multi-use gym, complete with 500 seats, which will allow the school to host regional and state championships. The new building will include additional exciting features like locker rooms, a weight room, and a dance studio. The new building will also provide a place where DA’s community of students and staff can all gather in one location.
Renovation of Denver Academy’s Elementary and 6th Grade Building will also take place during Phase One construction of the Building on Excellence project. The new space will support learning in the twenty-first century. Right-sized classrooms and flexible learning spaces will help DA Faculty teach students in the way each student learns best, Denver Academy’s specialty.
