Golden View Classical Academy develops students' hearts and minds through a classical, content-rich education in the liberal arts and sciences, from kindergarten through grade 12. We focus on responsible, independent, and productive citizenship as part of a flourishing human life.
"I always loved the idea of a classical education, but felt it would be difficult to find, much less implement. Yet here at Golden View Classical Academy, I am witnessing a beautiful approach to educating the entire person: mind, body, and heart. It's not just a school with high academic expectations, but one where living a virtuous life is a desired goal. Character does matter. My children are being challenged in their course work and are actually excited about their learning."
Mother of a 2nd, 7th, and 9th grader
"The difference in our children's academics is immeasurable; the difference in their pride in themselves is invaluable. Our children have accomplished so much both academically and personally since GVCA. We are so pleased with their progress! Jumping into to a new program was scary; We will never look back! GVCA has made so many positive changes in our lives!"
Mother of a 1st, 3rd, and 6th grader
"Golden View Academy has not only fulfilled, but in its first month and a half, has exceeded our hopes and expectations for the education that we want to achieve for these two very different children with very different needs and abilities. My gifted child is no longer coasting through school and my child who has overcome what seemed insurmountable developmental challenges is loving it."
Mother of two 4th graders
"We would highly recommend Golden View Classical Academy. The teachers are kind and encouraging. Our triplets love attending school everyday and we are learning so much from their daily coursework, art class, etc. The school is highly academic, encourages confidence and most importantly, provides a safe and loving environment for our girls!"
Mother of 3 kindergarteners
Golden View Classical Academy was established to develop within its students the intellectual and personal habits and skills upon which responsible, independent and productive lives are built, in the firm belief that such lives are the basis of a free and just society. This is achieved by always working to train the minds and improve the hearts of young people through a classical, content-rich education in the liberal arts and sciences, with instruction in the principles of moral character and civic virtue in an orderly and disciplined environment.
We opened in 2015 as a K-10 Academy with 496 students coming from over 120 different schools. This was the largest starting enrollment for a charter school in the history of Jefferson County School District. In 2016, we expanded to 580 students and added 11th Grade. In 2017, we remained the largest charter school in Golden, CO, and became a K-12 Academy with over 630 students. In the spring of 2018, we graduated our first class of Seniors. We are looking to enroll 672 students in the 2018-2019 school year.
