District News

Pearl Street in Boulder

Yesterday’s attack on a peaceful vigil in the heart of our community is not only a vile assault on our Jewish community—it is an attack on us all. Those bearing the physical wounds from this unprovoked violence are in pain today—we wish them successful and speedy recoveries. Our hearts are also with those bearing psychological wounds, who may find themselves fearful today—we hope you are surrounded by love to lighten the burden.

This time of the year is always special. As the school year wraps up, it’s a perfect time for all of us to reflect on what has been accomplished and how much all of our students have grown. I couldn’t be more proud. As we begin Summer Break, I hope that it is a fun and safe time of learning and adventure!

This year’s graduation season is extra special at BVSD because the District had its first class of students who obtained the Seal of Climate Literacy. In April, as a fitting tribute to Earth Month, twenty students representing numerous BVSD high schools presented portfolios that illustrated their “green trailway” during their time in the district and then received their Seal of Climate Literacy certificates, medals (made of sustainably sourced wood) and bamboo cords to wear at graduation.

Riley Nuttycombe, a graduating senior at New Vista High School is relieved to be finished with high school, after a year of working on her culminating senior project. But not because she’s tired of learning, she’s ready for the next challenge.

Nuttycombe enrolled in New Vista following the years of covid online learning, seeking a new social group and a building-based school experience before heading to college.

What she didn’t expect was that her time there would culminate in a senior project about space suit design, and multiple visits to the Mars Desert Research Station (MDRS) in Utah, the second of four simulated Mars habitats in the world, built and managed by the Mars Society.

In the Boulder Valley School District, preparing students for the future means more than college and career preparedness at the end of high school—it means starting career exploration early, building curiosity, and connecting classroom learning to the world that awaits our students.
