STEM Week at DA

4/1/2025

In March, our high schoolers participated in our annual STEM Week. It was a fun week filled with egg drop and popsicle stick bridge challenges along with poster presentations. It was hard to tell who was more enthusiastic… the students or the head of our science department, Alan Price.

A Year of Optimism Continues at Denver Academy with Upcoming Baseball Season

3/11/2025

By Jack Wood, DA Class of 2025

By all accounts, it’s been a banner year for Denver Academy’s High School Athletics Department. The Varsity Soccer team won their first game in nearly two full seasons, and the Varsity Boys Basketball team won a record nine games. With just the spring season remaining, baseball season is looming. In a season of change for the Denver Academy baseball team, they still feel optimistic about their chances as the first game of the season hurtles nearer.

State of the 'Stangs at the Half

2/3/2025

By Jack Wood, DA Class of 2025

At the beginning of the season, I said that the Denver Academy Mustangs Varsity Boys Basketball Team had something that no other Denver Academy team has had in a long time. The expectations for the team were high. Last year, there was hope, and it was proved right with a four-game improvement over the team two years ago. Thanks to that improvement, the Mustangs garnered the aforementioned expectations placed upon this year’s team.

The Game of the Season (Thus Far)

1/27/2025

By Jack Wood, DA Class of 2025

Tuesday night’s Varsity Boys Basketball game between the Denver Academy Mustangs and the Front Range Christian Falcons was one that was circled on players’ calendars since the schedule came out in October. The Falcons got only one win last year against the Mustangs during the district playoffs. It was a heartbreaking loss, and one the Mustangs almost came back and won.
