Heatherwood's E-STEAM school initiative launched this year with Art for the Sky, an interactive art experience.
Together with artist Daniel Dancer, our entire school community united to create this image of a columbine. Through Art for the Sky, students employed STEAM-based skills to plan and outline the state flower, and PK-5 students and staff joined in the creation of human artwork. The process was captured on video and in photos, illustrating how our impact on the world is greater when we work together as a community.
The entire experience of Art for the Sky was moving and memorable for both students and staff, an incredible start to the 2025-26 school year.
Read all about it! The Daily Camera covered Heatherwood's 2025-26 environmental-STEAM program launch in an article exploring our new outdoor education focus.
Wondering what E-STEAM is all about at Heatherwood? Learn more about Heatherwood's new PK-5 curriculum here, and get details on our STEAM-based explorations into local and state environmental issues.
Stay tuned for student-led projects and presentations to share their new learning - coming in spring 2026!

The Boulder Valley School District is one of just two Metro Denver school districts to earn Accredited with Distinction, the Colorado Department of Education’s highest honor — and the only district to earn the designation three years in a row.
This summer, the BVSD leadership team worked to evaluate options, including school closures, consolidations, reconfigurations and relocations. Analyzing enrollment trends, building capacity, facility conditions and long-term students needs, they weighed the potential challenges and possibilities.
Today, our team presented the following recommendations to the Board of Education.
