🍂 Fall Fun in Kinderland! 🍂

Our Kindergarteners took learning outside the box this morning with a little help from our beautiful Colorado aspens! 💛

As part of their CKLA Knowledge lesson on the five senses, students explored the texture and smell of aspen leaves before using them to create their very own leaf portraits. 🍁🎨

A fun way to combine learning, creativity, and the natural resources right outside our doors!

🦅Every Eagle Counts at Summit Elementary! 🦅

Students at Summit Elementary received a special feather as they arrived at school today—a reminder that Every Eagle Counts!

On their feathers, students wrote how they count at Summit and ways they can make a difference each day. They then took their feathers home as a reminder that their unique strengths, actions, and kindness matter.

Every student. Every voice. Every Eagle. 🪶

🏡 WPSD Homeschool Opportunities, Open House, and Curriculum Swap

Woodland Park School District is excited to offer WPSD Homeschool Connections — a flexible enrichment option designed to give homeschool families more opportunities, experiences, and connections while keeping the flexibility that makes homeschooling work for your family.

✨ What can students do?
• STEAM and hands-on creative projects
• Catamount Institute outdoor learning
• Swim
• PE and active learning
• Math & Literacy support
And there are even more possibilities! 🎓

K–8 students can combine Homeschool Connections with Summit’s EA Program, while Jr./Sr. high school students can pair it with our Take Two Program for opportunities such as trades, college credits, online classes, sports, theater, and band. Or, students can participate in Homeschool Connections on its own!

You choose what works for your family:
➡️ One day a week
➡️ Two days a week
➡️ Two half days
➡️ Makeup days can even be scheduled when needed

Parents are welcome to stay, or you can drop off your student. Younger siblings are welcome, too, with Pre-K play spaces available under parent supervision.

📍Come check it out!
Open House & Curriculum Swap

🏡 Introducing Homeschool Connections at Gateway!

We're excited to announce a new opportunity designed to support homeschooling families in our community!

Homeschool Connections at Gateway is being developed to provide:
🍎 Certified teachers
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Parent/guardian involvement and volunteer opportunities
📚 Grade-band classrooms for age-appropriate learning and socialization
📅 Tuesday & Thursday programming

This new program is designed to complement Woodland Park School District's current homeschool offerings—not replace them. Homeschool families can continue taking advantage of our Take Two program and Online/Enrichment Academy opportunities while also participating in Homeschool Connections at Gateway, creating even more flexible educational options for your family.
