Lenski’s Mission Statement: To educate all students for the future by challenging every individual to continuously learn, achieve, and act with purpose and compassion. In other words, we help students become better readers, writers, problem solvers, and makers of friendships.

Our designation as a Blue Ribbon School of Excellence in 2013 and 2019 by the U.S. Department of Education establishes Lenski as one of America’s most successful schools and recognizes our commitment to excellence for all students. The Colorado Department of Education also ranks Lenski among the highest-performing public schools in the state and awarded us the John Irwin School of Excellence award 2008, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2016, 2017, 2019 and 2022  (note: awards for 2015 were not determined due to a lack of data and awards for 2020 and 2021 were not determined due to the COVID-19 pandemic). The John Irwin awards are given to schools that demonstrate exceptional academic achievement over time reflecting exceptional performance in Math, English Language Arts, and Science. In 2004, the American Library Association awarded our media center National Library of the Year.

In addition to Language Arts,  Math, Science, and Social Studies, we offer a variety of enhanced services to complement classroom teaching.
