This summer, iSpy Agent Douglas!

Families and adventurers can dive into a summer of exploration with the brand new I Spy Agent Douglas scavenger hunt, an exciting twist added to the popular Agents of Discovery program! This season, Agent Douglas isn’t just your guide… he’s hiding around the County, and it’s your job to track him down. Follow DLC and Douglas County - Government social media for clues to discover where he’s hiding each month. If you find him, a special prize awaits!

While the scavenger hunt takes center stage this summer, the core Agents of Discovery experience continues. Everyone can still enjoy monthly missions crafted by Douglas County Rangers and Douglas Land Conservancy, guiding players through the county’s pristine open spaces and trails. Each mission is designed to spark curiosity, learning, and outdoor adventure.

We can’t celebrate Staff Appreciation Week without shouting out all the incredible people at Iron Horse who keep our school running strong every single day 💙

Our Personalized Learning team works tirelessly to support every student. Our administration team is unstoppable and always leading with heart. Our library and lunch crew bring so much care and positivity to our students’ daily routines. Our preschool teams deserve a huge thank you for working with our youngest engineers and setting such a strong foundation. And we are so grateful for our EAs who support everyone across the building in so many important ways.

And of course, our amazing specials teachers absolutely rock and bring so much joy and creativity into our building!

It truly takes a whole team to make Iron Horse such a special place. We are so grateful for each and every one of you! ✨
