Getting to Know Golden
The city of Golden is a historically rich region located at the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, just west of Denver. Known for its stunning natural beauty, Golden is surrounded by rolling hills, scenic mesas and the iconic Clear Creek that goes right through the heart of the town.
Renowned for its outdoor recreational opportunities, the area boasts numerous hiking and biking trails, including those in the nearby Table Mountain and Lookout Mountain. Golden's historic downtown is a charming mix of well-preserved 19th-century architecture, complemented by a lively cultural scene marked by events and celebrations.
The area holds five elementary schools, one middle school and one high school. These schools share a unified mission of fostering an active, engaged learning community that leverages innovative educational opportunities and instills a profound sense of belonging, thereby maximizing student growth and success.
We encourage you to support and attend events at schools throughout the area.
