KDS Arts Receives National Recognition
We are excited to announce that Kent Denver has been classified as an Exemplary School by the Arts Schools Network! This national merit is the highest designation of its kind and is awarded to schools that exemplify excellence in arts education through innovative practice, inclusive culture and sustained commitment to student growth.
“It's a testament to our school's robust commitment to the arts to be honored with an award traditionally given to specialized arts schools,” said Alex Ates, Director of Arts. Kent Denver will be recognized for this award at the 2026 Arts Schools Network Conference in San Diego in the fall.
