We are excited to share our 2025 Denver Kids student success rates. This past year, our senior cohort consisted of 130 incredible students. Each one carried their own story and their own hopes for the future. These outcomes reflect the determination and hard work of our students, staff, and community:
On-time graduation rate: 94.8% of Denver Kids students in the class of 2025 successfully graduated high school on time.
And the good news doesn't stop there!
Of those students who successfully completed high school, an impressive 81% of Denver Kids graduates are currently pursuing postsecondary education or are enrolled in the Gap Year track in the Denver Kids Youth Pathways Postsecondary Program, with the intent to enroll in a postsecondary education program in 2026.
On average, our graduates have been part of our program for five years, reflecting the enduring relationships that are at the core of our mission.
These are not just numbers. It’s about young people ready to step into their futures with confidence and purpose. Throughout their journeys, these students received crucial support from Denver Kids Advisors, Volunteer Mentors, families, and the Denver Kids community. The aggregate power of all of these supports empowered students to explore various postsecondary options, including technical and trade schools, two and four-year colleges, and more. We are so proud of them!
Your support plays an important role in sustaining our program, helping ensure that each student has the opportunity to reach their full potential.
Thank you for your role in empowering our young people as individuals, students, and future leaders. Together, we are truly making a difference.
