Bromwell Elementary School

A U.S. Department of Education Blue Ribbon School

WELCOME TO BROMWELL!

Welcome to the Bromwell Elementary website. We hope this site will help you become better acquainted with our wonderful school.

The following covenant statement expresses who we are and what is important to us:

Bromwell School is a caring community created by a dedicated group of families and educational leaders committed to...

• creatively meeting the needs of all learners
• quality comprehensive programs
• high academic achievement
• strong community involvement

We are proud to note that Bromwell Elementary has been named a Blue Ribbon School by the U.S. Department of Education! This prestigious award is given to schools who are nominated by their state's Department of Education for consistent top achievement. Bromwell Elementary is the first school in Denver Public Schools to receive this award.

Bromwell students benefit from a well-rounded curriculum. Bromwell's scores on standardized assessments such as the Colorado Student Assessment Program (CSAP) consistently surpass the Colorado and DPS averages and rank us among the top schools in the district. Bromwell also claims the distinction of having a higher percentage of open-enrollment students through the Choice program than any other DPS school.

Our school is home to a Physically Disabled Center Program that serves students in a partial inclusion model. This allows PD students to be included in regular classroom activities as well as have their special needs met in the areas of occupational therapy, physical therapy, speech/language, and augmented technology training.

Bromwell is also noted for its Learning Landscape, an outdoor education facility that combines athletic fields and playground areas with a community garden and other unique features.

Our school's close proximity to the Cherry Creek North business area provides our students with many exciting enrichment opportunities. Students often visit the Ross/Cherry Creek branch of the Denver Public Library or the many art galleries that are located near our school.

Bromwell School has a tradition of very strong parent support and involvement. Parents and other volunteers put in hundreds of hours each month to serve our student population. The Collaborative School Committee (CSC) and PTSA work together to provide maximum support for our students. Fund-raising projects have been established to enrich curriculum programs and to help provide our many special programs: physical education, visual arts, music, dance, library and technology, and Gifted and Talented/Challenge.
