Message from the Principal

The Gilpin County Undivided High School consists of the Gilpin County Middle School (GCMS) and Gilpin County High School (GCHS). At Gilpin Schools we believe in the safety, active engagement, and academic success of all our students. Gilpin is based on the premise that all students can learn, and it is our job as educators to facilitate that learning. Our purpose at Gilpin Schools is to prepare students for college and/or the workforce. We strive to uncover student potential and inspire to motivate and engage our students.

An important aspect of Gilpin Schools is the small class size and relationships established among teachers, students, and families. It is our belief that it must be a cooperative effort between all these entities to allow for each student to reach his/her potential.

We offer:

  • Individualized instruction and small class sizes
  • A Chromebook for every student
  • STEM preparation through flipped classrooms in Math and Science
  • Advanced Placement courses in all core content areas
  • Dual enrollment college courses
  • Vocational programs through Warren Tech

Students have an opportunity to participate in a variety of extracurricular activities:

  • Outstanding Fine Arts Programs that include drama productions, visual arts, and vocal and instrumental music programs
  • National Honor Society and Interact Club
  • Student Council
  • Junior Achievement

    ParentSquare automatically syncs with our student information system to generate an account for each parent, using their preferred email address and phone number. We encourage parents to access their accounts so they can download the mobile app and update their preferences on when and how they are notified.
