Community Engagement

  • The Community Engagement Team (CET) works with Denver Public Schools (DPS) external and internal community partners to support DPS families and community. We share resources, create helpful materials, and promote projects through videos or other media. You’ll see us at school meetings, community events, and projects with local groups that support Denver Public Schools families.
