Dear PSD Community,
In Poudre School District, we believe our community deserves clear and honest communication about the forces shaping our schools. I want to share information that provides context about current enrollment trends and what they mean for our school district community.
More info is available on the district's new Enrollment Trends website.
You can now view and submit feedback on proposed changes to PSD District Policies! If you'd like to submit your feedback, you must do so by the end of the day on Monday, January 19.
The policies currently under review are as follows:
Most Poudre School District schools are operating on a normal schedule today following the restoration of power.
Due to continued high winds and unsafe transportation conditions, Red Feather Lakes Elementary, Livermore Elementary, and Stove Prairie Elementary are closed today.
Because of wind conditions, bus transportation is not available today for students who live in the mountains and attend other PSD schools.
We appreciate our families’ patience and understanding as we prioritize safety and continue to monitor conditions.
As a precaution due to the possibility of a Public Safety Power Shutoff (PSPS) by Xcel Energy, Bethke Elementary, Timnath Elementary, and Timnath Middle-High School will be closed Dec. 17. All athletics and activities at these schools are also canceled Wed., Dec. 17. This decision was made to ensure we do not need to dismiss students during the school day if power is shut off for an extended period.
Educational excellence is something every Poudre School District educator strives for, and that was recognized this month as three district teachers won state awards for health and physical education.
Dear PSD Community,
At the Dec. 9, 2025 Board of Education meeting, the board approved the school calendar for the 2026-27 academic year. We want to ensure families and staff are aware of the changes, particularly the later start to the school year, so you can plan ahead.
2026-27 School Calendar Important Dates
The calendar reflects feedback from employees, families, and past community surveys, as well as state requirements and PSD’s employee agreement. Key updates include:
Kinard Core Knowledge Middle School girls cross country didn’t just bring back a state championship with their win in late October, they made history as the first girls team in school history to earn a state championship.
The Poudre School District strives to innovate across all operations, including transportation. Next year, that work will advance with two important additions.
The Poudre School District offers countless resources to students to ensure academic success every single day, from individual help to systemwide support. But one program many may not have heard of has had a tremendous impact on students for the last half-a-century.
Last year, a controversial late-game call stopped the Wellington Middle-High School football team from claiming the Colorado 2A championship. This year, the Eagles couldn’t be stopped! WMHS earned the state title with a dominant win over Elizabeth High School.
