Property Disposition
In alignment with Jeffco Public Schools’ Regional Opportunities for Thriving Schools initiative, the district closed 16 elementary schools at the conclusion of the 2022-23 school year. This was in addition to three schools that were already vacant. Jeffco must determine whether to retain each property for its own future use and, if not, what to do with the property (see District Policy DN).
Important Information to Note
- Currently, there are only two school properties available for sale. Learn more in the Available Properties section below.
- Learn more about where each property is in the Disposition Process (surplus property, property sold or leased, property will not be surplused, etc.).
- The school properties will be well maintained throughout the school year (including building and grounds maintenance) until they are declared surplus. Buildings will be regularly patrolled by Jeffco’ Department of School Safety and local law enforcement.
- This Property Disposition Process is a multi-year process and will take time. Jeffco owns properties as part of the Regional Opportunities for Thriving Schools initiative and other properties beyond that initiative.
- Fill out the prospective buyer form if you are interested in learning more about surplus properties for sale or long-term lease when information becomes available.
