Today, we pause to remember and honor the lives lost on September 11, 2001. On this Patriot’s Day, we reflect on the bravery of first responders, the resilience of our communities, and the strength of our nation. We feel grateful for the strong partnerships we have with our local first responders and we will never forget the sacrifices made and the lives changed forever.
#StartWithHelloWeek is next week! To kick things off, Colegrove students and teachers created this “Be the “I” in KIND" mural to remind everyone that every individual plays an important role in creating and maintaining a kind and respectful school community. When we plant seeds of kindness today, we reap the benefits tomorrow!

🌿✨ Our six-week outdoor 21st Century Program program at Many Forks Farm may have concluded, but we can’t stop thinking about it!
Over the summer, we offered hands-on experiences in building, cooking, planting, and nature exploring. Each day, our young adventurers dove into the great outdoors, learning from the environment and each other while forging a strong, supportive community.
We're thrilled to have had incredible guest speakers join us weekly. A special shoutout goes to John Pitroff of Second Chance Composting! 🌟 John passionately educated our students about the importance of composting and reducing landfill waste and supported their passion projects with valuable insights. His dedication to giving back and inspiring the next generation is truly remarkable.
Here’s to making a difference together! 🌱💚 #Greenagers #OutdoorLearning #CommunityImpact #Composting #EnvironmentalEducation
