I-Team Manor

I-Team Manor is an off-campus alternative program for high school students with special needs in the Cherry Creek, Overland and Smoky Hill high school feeder areas. l. I-Team Manor provides a small educational community for 11th and 12th graders, ages 16-21, with a low student-to-teacher ratio. All students work closely with a case manager, who oversees the Individualized Education Program (IEP) of each student, graduation credits, discipline issues and academic progress.

All students at the I-Team Manor have a need for a separate school placement through an IEP process started at the home high school.

Mission Statement

The I-Team programs provide a safe school environment that values learning, responsibility, respect, mentoring and life skills development so that all of our students will be prepared for a career or higher education.

Social and Emotional Learning

Social and emotional learning is an important component of education in the I-Team programs. All staff work to help students achieve personal growth by learning self-management techniques, interpersonal and intrapersonal skills, and healthy approaches to conflict resolution. These social-emotional skills promote success at school, home, the workplace and in life.
