QUALITY LEARNING ENVIRONMENT

Some DPS buildings are 100 years old; others were built in the last 10. Investments in older school or non-traditional buildings help address facility deficiencies that may impact academics, logistics or culture. 135 schools are receiving funds totaling $29.5 million to improve key learning spaces as decided by school-based teams. Another $34.5 million is dedicated to needed improvements throughout DPS for athletics, outdoor play spaces, science and career readiness.
