Overview
Northglenn High School strives to accelerate students' academic achievement and nurture their social development by providing high-quality instruction for every student, in every classroom, every day.
Students are provided a diverse and outstanding educational experience, particularly through Northglenn’s STEM education program. With problem-based learning, STEM students are tasked with real-world problems to tackle through a transdisciplinary lens. Students hone 21st-century skills as they problem solve — inquiry, collaboration, creativity, innovation. At the culmination of a project, students present their solutions to community experts. Community partners help mentor students, making entrepreneurial dreams a reality.
Northglenn’s diverse learning environment offers students a chance to take a wide array of elective and Advanced Placement courses. Northglenn students can also participate in a variety of competitive sports programs, clubs or activities.

In-district families who wish to attend their neighborhood boundary school can use our boundary locator to determine which school their student will attend.
Looking for a school outside your designated attendance boundary?
In-district families who wish to attend a school other than their boundary school and out-of-district families who wish to attend a Five Star District school can apply for admissions via the Choice Program during the specified timelines. Choice is closed for the 2019-2020 school year. We are currently accepting applications for the 2020-2021 school year.
