Notable Events
- In Aug. 2018, Dustin Delaney resigned as head football coach after a singular season game due to poor conditions. Delaney released a resignation letter publicly to Twitter – "I took this job on the reputation of Cherry Creek Schools and the districts [sic] motto of 'Dedicated to Excellence.' Since I moved here at the beginning of June, I have seen nothing even resembling excellence." 9News wrote, "He goes on to say the school district is decaying and that no staffers there take accountability, instead shifting the blame. He names no one in particular but seems to aim his ire toward district officials that ignored his requests for repairs at the Eaglecrest football facilities."[9]
