Gold Hill School

The town of Gold Hill is home to Gold Hill Elementary, a very unique public elementary school that is part of the Boulder Valley School District. It is a two room schoolhouse and is the oldest continually operating school in Colorado. One room is home to the younger classroom, comprised of the kindergarteners, first and second graders and another room is home to the third, fourth, and fifth graders.
There is one teacher per classroom and actually a third room that serves as the office and library.There is a museum in town with historical documentation of the school’s history. The atmosphere at the Gold Hill School is rife with a strong sense of community inside and outside of the classroom. The Gold Hill Elementary program is filled with enriching learning activities for every child throughout the school year.
