School Notes:
  • Smoky Hill High School is located in Aurora, Colorado. Smoky Hill is part of the Cherry Creek School District and was the second high school built by the district in 1974. The school mascot is the Buffalowith the school colors of red and green. It goes by the short name 'Smoky.' Students take pride in the spelling of the first word of the school name without an 'e.'. The name actually comes from the fact that the school is located not far from the Smoky Hill Trail, an old pioneer trail stretching from Kansas City to Denver. Smoky also takes great pride in both academics and athletics. In 1991 Smoky became the second high school in Colorado to offer the International Baccalaureate program. Since that time Smoky has been recognized in Newsweek's nationwide list of excellent high schools. Smoky also takes great pride in their athletics program with a stellar soccer, volleyball, and basketball programs.
