Denver-based DSST expands in Aurora’s booming east side in the US: How this charter network is meeting a rising school demand

Denver-based charter network DSST is expanding in Aurora’s rapidly growing eastern area with two new schools opening in 2028. This growth addresses increased demand driven by a housing boom, with the new schools co-located alongside a district-run high school. DSST’s expansion reflects shifting enrolment patterns and a unique funding partnership with Aurora Public Schools, aiming to serve nearly 1,000 students in grades 6 to 12 and ease current waitlists.
