Located at the entrance to the town of Telluride on 10.8 acres, the Telluride Middle and High School campus site was opened in November, 1995. In 2005, the Intermediate School and the 600 person capacity Palm Theatre were constructed. The remote glacial valley in the San Juan Mountains of southwestern Colorado presents a spectacular backdrop to our educational program. Telluride High School has a strong college-preparatory academic focus balanced with a 21st century, hands-on experiential education that reflects the interests, involvement, and profile of Telluride's community.

Telluride Schools are known for exemplary K-12 programs and high student achievement. The Telluride test scores on the Colorado Student Achievement Program (CSAP) are consistently among the highest in the state. Outstanding programs and opportunities for students include advanced placement courses, specialized mentorships with community members, individual enrichment plans for students, extensive technology experiences and outdoor education. The district has a partnership with the Telluride Ski and Golf Companty to provide students with an outstanding ski/snowboard physical education program (Ski PE) each winter. There is also a comprehensive co-curricular program that includes a wide range of academics and athletic activities for Telluride's students.
