Way to go huskies - you did it!
We reached our goal of $70,000 during the Husky Harvest Fest, where Principal Jaramillo topped off the red sand for the final time! that means that we have earned the schoolwide incentive of a visit from the Fiske Planetarium Sky Dome, scheduled for Thursday, October 17!

At the end of last school year, responding to feedback from the community, the Boulder Valley School District (BVSD) Board of Education updated Policy JN, greatly reducing school and classroom fees.
This summer as an intern with BVSD’s Communications Department through the BVSD Grad Plus Leadership program, Brianna Sandoval, Monarch High School Senior, got the opportunity to see how our local law enforcement prepares for situations in BVSD schools. She attended a multi-jurisdictional (local law enforcement and first responders from different local agencies) summer exercise that prepared first responders across Boulder County for an active shooter incident inside a school. Read her first-person account and takeaways from the event.
