Our students had an amazing time at Blanca Vista Park in Alamosa, enjoying a day of paddleboarding, sunshine, and making great memories with friends. It was a great opportunity for students to get outdoors and try something new, all while celebrating the end of the school year. Thank you to everyone who helped make this trip a success!

Congratulations to all of our award recipients!

On May 12, 2026, our Fifth Grade Crew participated in the Annual Fishing Expedition sponsored and organized by local Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW). The fishing trip gave the students fun hands on learning experience where they learned about the different kinds of fish found in Colorado rivers, licensure to fish or hunt in Colorado, fishing safety, how to identify which fish are safe for "catch and release", and witnessed stocking the pond with new fish. The students were given a new fishing pole to keep after learning how to properly set up their fishing pole with hooks and bait. Students learned about the importance of fishing in history when ancestors had to hunt and fish for food to survive. This annual learning expedition is always filled with excitement and the weather could not have been more perfect!

Our K-2 students rolled Into a new adventure with a Roller Skating Expedition. In a world where physical activity often competes with screens and sedentary lifestyles, introducing roller skating as part of students’ extracurricular activities can be a game-changer. The essence of roller skating goes beyond just learning to glide on wheels; it embodies the spirit of fun, camaraderie, and significant physical and mental benefits. Staff/Family members and crew mates played a pivotal role in nurturing this sense of community, instilling an atmosphere of encouragement and support where students felt comfortable trying new things without fear of judgment.
