What's Happening at Cherry Creek

Senior year of high school will mark only the beginning for a student-athlete, as he also prepares for college ball. The drive to compete comes from a place of love, as CBS Colorado learned.

This week, the Cherry Creek School District will celebrate 75 years and welcome back nearly 53,000 students from preschool through 12th grade. As a top performing school district in Colorado and the nation, CCSD celebrates this historic anniversary and commits to continued excellence for each and every student in the years to come.

Cherry Creek High School won nine state championships during the 2024-25 school year, bringing state record total to 248.

The new NSWL Denver state-of-the-art performance center broke ground Monday morning; a one-of-a-kind partnership between Denver NWSL and the Cherry Creek School District. The goal is to help advance women’s youth, amateur, and professional sports in Colorado and support CCSD’s vision of a Pathway of Purpose for every student.

The Colorado Department of Education recently recognized 14 Cherry Creek School District schools for academic achievement and growth during the 2023-24 school year.

Unlike the traditional desk-based learning at Cherry Creek, the Cherry Creek Innovation Campus offers hands-on, career-focused education that prepares students for college, trade school, or the workforce.

The highlight of this year’s show was a unique collaborative project done by 2nd graders at Dry Creek Elementary and students at Cherry Creek High School.
