APS is “picking up the PACE” with its mission: To teach every student the knowledge, skills and values necessary to enter college or career and become a contributing member of society who flourishes in a diverse, dynamic world.  Below are examples of the many APS graduates who are setting the  PACE for our current students.

“I think this project helped students think about peace in their lives and in the world. ”

“The most memorable part of performing our Color Guard for the Denver Broncos game was the thunderous applause. The feeling you get when people are cheering for you is gut-wrenching.”
- ROTC Cadet Will Brown

“For me, the best part of volunteering is how the kids ask us what high school is really like.”
