Staff members receive a grant check from Poudre REA
Funding Student Voice - Thank You Poudre Valley REA

Our Spring Showcase Night on May 7, 2026, will highlight student-led presentations featuring Project-Based Learning (PBL) units across our 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade classrooms.

During the Showcases, students will demonstrate their learning in Science, Math, and Social Studies through interactive displays designed for families and community members. Teachers will have guided students through interdisciplinary projects that integrate core academic content with writing, communication, creativity, and collaboration skills. Our Specials teachers will also partner with grade levels to support student learning through their creative disciplines, making this a true whole-school integration experience.

The goal of the Empower Grant from Poudre Valley REA that supported this work will purchase materials that provide equitable access for all students, allowing them to truly showcase their learning and passions using a wide variety of tools and resources suited to their projects.
