Littleton Public Schools (aka ''Arapahoe County School District No. 6'' or ''LPS'') is a school district in Littleton, Colorado which serves several communities within the southern Denver metropolitan area. It is governed by a five-member Board of Education, and administered by a superintendent and four-executives.〔http://littletonpublicschools.net/Default.aspx?tabid=140〕 Its headquarters, the Education Services Center, are located in Downtown Littleton. It is the fifteenth largest school district in Colorado.〔http://www.cde.state.co.us/communications/releases/20110111pupilcount〕 LPS operates 13 elementary schools, four middle schools, three high schools, several alternative programs, a preschool, and two charter schools. Steve Spangler, known for his experiments on local TV station 9news, previously acted as a science consultant for the school district. His experience helped students to get motivated and more interested in the hands-on aspects of science. == History ==
In 1889, Littleton Public Schools (''then Littleton School District Six'') was officially incorporated with the State of Colorado. It was established in the fall of 1864 when residents of the South Platte Valley voted to establish a public school district, the boundaries of which extended from what is now Sheridan Boulevard thirty miles east to the Kansas territorial line.〔http://www.littletonpublicschools.net/Default.aspx?tabid=150〕 The first president of the school district was Lewis B. Ames, for whom an elementary school and administrative building are now named after. In the winter of 1864, construction of the first school, a log cabin, was completed. In 1868, Littleton's second school, a frame school building was erected on the Lilley Ranch west of the Platte River. In 1873 the Rapp Avenue School was built, a one-room, brick structure with one teacher and 70 students. Littleton Public Schools then grew exponentially; experiencing the most growth during the "Baby boom" era. Most LPS schools were built between 1950 and the late 1970s.
