Emily Griffith Opportunity School

The educational center spans three campuses across Denver, offering technical training, adult education programs, and language learning classes for local residents.

Founded in 1916 by educator Emily Griffith, the institution began as a response to provide educational access to Denver workers seeking professional development.

The school maintains the largest English as a Second Language program in Colorado, enrolling approximately 3,000 international students annually for language education.

Students can access career technical education, trades training, and professional studies through multiple specialized facilities located throughout the Denver metropolitan area.

The original building at 12th and Welton Street transformed into The Slate Denver hotel while preserving its status as a Denver Historical Landmark.
