Welcome to Olathe Middle/High School!
We're a proud AVID school nestled in the heart of rural Colorado, part of the Montrose County School District. Serving grades 6 through 12, our close-knit campus is home to around 525 incredible students. What truly sets us apart is our unwavering commitment to building strong, meaningful relationships with every student. We believe that connection is the foundation of learning, and we work every day to create a school culture where students feel seen, heard, supported, and inspired.
At Olathe, we believe that all students can learn and succeed
—and we are deeply committed to helping them reach their fullest potential. We hold high expectations for every learner and provide the support and encouragement they need to rise to the challenge. Our focus on strong academics ensures that students are not only meeting standards but also developing critical thinking skills, creativity, and a lifelong love of learning. Whether they need extra help or are ready for advanced opportunities, we strive to meet students where they are and help them grow from there.
We're dedicated to preparing students for success beyond high school—whether that's college, trade or vocational school, the military, joining the workforce, or exploring other meaningful paths. Our goal is for every student to graduate with the knowledge, skills, and confidence they need to thrive in their next chapter.
Our teachers and staff take the time to truly get to know each student, to understand their goals, their challenges, and their unique strengths. These connections allow us to guide and support our students as they grow into confident, capable individuals ready to take on whatever comes next.
Our team thrives on a strong sense of collaboration and mutual support. At Olathe, you'll find a collegial atmosphere where teachers lift each other up, share ideas, and work together to ensure student success. We believe in the power of teamwork and professional trust—our educators are never alone in their efforts. Whether it's co-planning lessons, mentoring one another, or celebrating wins big and small, our staff is united by a shared commitment to students and to each other.
We're looking for educators who care deeply about students, value strong relationships, believe in the potential of every child, and want to be part of a supportive and inspiring community. Olathe is more than just a school—it’s a family. And we're confident you'll feel right at home here.
