But this event is not your typical school fundraiser. Don’t expect kid music. Expect everything under the sun music. And while, yes, kids are welcome – Tellerpalooza shows what makes Teller special. Parents that enjoy a great time, great music and each other.

Early in the evening, the stage features the Teller DPS (Denver Public Schools) student band comprised of elementary school peers. Later, students head home to babysitters; parents and local fans stay into the night. Downstairs, families may watch a performance from the Buntport Theater group, and play games together. Tellerpalooza will also go old-school with the ever-present bake sale – or if wine is more to your liking, participate in the “Wall of Wine” drawing and you may bring home a large box of assorted favorites donated by Teller parents.

Basically, come, hang out, plan to HAVE FUN.

As a Highly Gifted and Talented Integrated Magnet School, we focus on academic differentiation and best instructional practices that meet the needs of all types of learners in our ECE-5th grade classrooms. Staff and parents work together to provide opportunities for social/emotional, extra-curricular and leadership experiences for our students. Our goal as a community is to ensure that our students are academically ready for their next grade level with a strong sense of good citizenship, health and wellness.

What does that mean? Teller is a community school in every sense of the word. We work together and we play together.
