About our students
Our students represent extraordinary diversity, coming from over 130 countries and speaking more than 160 languages, making APS one of the most diverse school districts in Colorado. Many are overcoming significant challenges, including learning English as a second language and limited financial resources. Of our 38,000 students, 74% qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.
