About this event

Discover a Revolutionary Approach to Education at Our 2025 Summer Open House

Join us Saturday, July 12th from 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM for an exclusive glimpse into Alpine Valley School, Denver's pioneering self-directed democratic school where kids aren't just students—they're respected community members who drive their own learning journey.

What Makes Us Different?

Imagine your child waking up excited about learning, pursuing their interests with genuine enthusiasm, and developing the confidence to tackle any challenge life throws their way. At Alpine Valley School, students aged 5-19 experience education on their own terms in a supportive community built on freedom, respect, integrity, and responsibility.

Our graduates don't just succeed academically—they thrive as creative problem-solvers, confident communicators, and engaged citizens. Without the burdens of labels, grades, or exams, students develop intrinsic motivation and critical thinking skills that prepare them for real-world success.

Your Child Can:

  • Follow their natural curiosity and learn through play and exploration
  • Participate in democratic decision-making alongside peers and staff
  • Build meaningful relationships across age groups
  • Develop emotional intelligence and social awareness in a nurturing environment
  • Experience the joy of learning without academic pressure or competition

What to Expect: This informal event offers tours of our unique campus, conversations with current families and graduates, and the chance to see firsthand how children flourish when treated with dignity and given space to be authentically themselves. You'll discover how our approach reduces family stress while strengthening relationships and supporting each child's individual path to growth.

Free Event - RSVP Required Additional resources and information packets will be available for families to explore.
