Douglas County School District

Dozens of members of the DCSD community were honored at the June 9 Board of Education meeting. More than 50 members of the DCSD Transportation team participated in the statewide Bus Road-eo event which took place recently at Ponderosa High School. During the event, DCSD Mechanic Joe Kubec won the title of Best Overall.
Also honored were numerous volunteers and community members who have served on DCSD Board Committees, including the District Accountability Committee, the Fiscal Oversight Committee, the Long Range Planning Committee, and the Mill Bond Oversight Committee. Several individuals have completed their service, and were thanked for volunteering many hours of their time to advise our Board of Education and serve our school district.
The Board also presented gifts of appreciation to Superintendent Erin Kane and Administrative Assistant to the Board Shauna Manitoken.

🌱 Did you know that some DCSD schools participate in composting programs?

Throughout the school year, students and staff at Clear Sky Elementary collected food scraps from the cafeteria, helping keep organic waste out of landfills. Thanks to a partnership with Castle Rock Composting, those scraps were transformed into nutrient-rich compost and returned to the school to support garden beds, outdoor learning spaces and new plant growth.

This full-circle experience gave students a firsthand look at sustainability in action, showing how small efforts can make a meaningful impact. As we reflect on another successful school year, we're proud of the ways our students learn, lead and care for the world around them. 🌎💚
