An elite secondary school in Aurora, Colorado founded in 1974. The School's endowment stands as the largest in the western United States. The School is nationally renowned for its competitive academic curriculum and the placement of its alums in the finest state schools in Colorado, including Colorado State and Metro State. Smoky Hill has a proud athletics history, with the lacrosse team finishing second in the 1978 state tournament. Alums consistently find great success in later life in a variety of professional areas and give back to the School generously.
