As we wrap up our final day celebrating National Charter School Week, we wanted to highlight some of the exciting science learning that took place across our school today! 🔬🦋

Our 2nd grade students released butterflies they have been observing over the past several weeks. Through this hands-on experience, students learned about the butterfly life cycle and the incredible process of metamorphosis.

Meanwhile, our 5th grade students proudly presented their projects at the Science Fair, where judges evaluated their work across three domains: Physical Science, Life Science, and Earth & Space Science.

Thank you for allowing us to share just a few of the amazing things happening in our school community!

Keeping with our celebration of National Charter School Week, today our 4th grade students treated parents and classmates to their Colorado Road Trip Presentations. 🏔️🚗

Students designed unique road trips across the state of Colorado, creating engaging presentations that highlighted exciting destinations and activities. Some popular attractions included the Four Corners Monument, Pikes Peak, major sporting events, and white water rafting adventures.

Through these presentations, students strengthened their public speaking and memorization skills in a fun and supportive environment surrounded by family and friends.

Yesterday we held our first ever Entrepreneur Market! 📈💲

This market came from our Entrepreneur Club, where students spent many weeks developing products, including their branding and marketing tactics, which eventually led to them hosting their own market stall to sell products to our staff members.

Students came with 3D printed products, baked goods, and books to name a few, all for sale!

PCK Girls Soccer is on top of the SMAC for the first time since 2023!

The girls earned an impressive victory over Cherry Creek Academy, with the match coming down to a penalty shootout. PCK came out on top 2-1 to secure the win and claim the championship.

Please join us in congratulating these athletes on an incredible achievement and a hard fought victory! 🎉⚽️

As part of National Charter School Week, we are highlighting our kindergarten classes and their creative Litterbug projects. 🐝🐛

Recently, our kindergarten students designed and presented their Litterbug creations to classmates as part of their science unit, Taking Care of the Earth. Using recycled materials collected from around their homes, students repurposed everyday items into imaginative insects and critters.

Through this project, students strengthened their oral presentation skills while also practicing writing, memorization, and public speaking through their prepared speeches.

Smile! It’s National Charter School Week! 🎉

All week long, we’ll be celebrating the unique and exciting things happening in our classrooms by highlighting PCK’s incredible curriculum, students, and school community. Follow along as we showcase what makes PCK so special!

And don’t forget, voting for Colorado Family Favorites closes this Friday, May 15. Be sure to vote for PCK in the Favorite Charter Elementary School, Favorite Charter Middle School, and Favorite Charter Elementary/Middle School Principal categories!

Happy Mother's Day to all of our moms at PCK! 🌺

🐾 Yesterday our 4th grade students had the chance to visit the Colorado State Capitol and Judicial Center. There they toured the capitol building, observed the House of Representatives and Senate while in session, and hear from Colorado Supreme Court Justice Carlos Samour Jr., among a handful of other valuable and enriching learning experiences. Students left with takeaways about Colorado’s rich history and the significance of law in our society. 👨‍⚖️
