In 1916, Emily Griffith founded Denver's Opportunity School "for all who wish to learn" and served as its first principal. Following her retirement, her name was added to the school's name and the campus expanded to take up the entire block by 1956. The school retained its original name until 2011, when Opportunity School, was replaced by Technical College, and has remained at its original location until this year, as the campus is dispersed to 3 locations across Denver.
