Note: Read on for a deeper explanation about the development of the 2024-25 school year calendar that goes above and beyond the email sent from the district on Nov. 28.
The PSD Board of Education voted Tuesday to approve the district calendar for the 2024-25 school year. It mirrors that of the current school year calendar, with:
Poudre School District is proud to announce the new principals for Fossil Ridge High School and Poudre Community Academy.
Poudre School District is pleased to announce that Emily Bickerton has been named the district’s new director of Human Resources.
Bickerton began her HR career in public education in 2016. She held different HR roles in Englewood Schools, Jeffco Public Schools, and at HRx, a small HR consulting company, before coming to PSD in 2022. She began her new position as director in July; she was previously the assistant director of HR.
Ensuring schools are safe places for all students and staff is a top priority for Poudre School District. In an effort to maintain safety and enhance security operations, PSD has hired law enforcement and school security veteran Frederick Smith to serve as its director of Safety and Security.
Highlights of the PSD Now Nov. 2 edition:
The Poudre School District Board of Education and superintendent invite members of the PSD community to participate in an upcoming community engagement session from 6 to 7:30 p.m., Wednesday, Nov. 15, at Fossil Ridge High School, 5400 Ziegler Road in Fort Collins.
The primary focus of this session will be district long-range planning. Participants will have the opportunity to ask questions and engage in dialogue with Board of Education directors and the superintendent about district long-range planning.
Currently, Poudre School District has identified 7% more students experiencing some form of homelessness or housing insecurity as compared to the same time last year.
Whether your child is enrolling in Poudre School District for the very first time or moving up a level to a PSD middle or high school (or middle-high school), attending an open house is a great way to get acquainted with the people and programs in their building.
Open House events and Information Nights will take place across PSD in November and December 2023 to coincide with the first-round school choice application period Nov. 1 through Dec. 15. Registration for all schools in the 2024-25 school year launches Monday, Nov. 27.
