Dear Poudre School District community,
I want to extend warm greetings and heartfelt wishes to each and every one of you. The joy and spirit of the holidays were all around, as I visited schools recently.
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:
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.
In his latest video message, Superintendent Brian Kingsley provides an update on educational program changes, school consolidations, and boundary modifications that are necessary due to the significant challenges facing our community and Poudre School District. Many people are wondering what will happen next in this process, and we are committed to providing more clarity and reassurance as details become available.

Dear Poudre School District community,
Everyone belongs in Poudre School District. It is our commitment to create spaces of connection and belonging in our schools where people care about one another and provide comfort to those who need it. Wherever they go in PSD, students and adults alike should feel safe and able to show up as the unique and valued people that they are.
Highlights of the PSD Now Oct. 9 edition:
Poudre School District runs 73 facilities, including schools, program sites, office buildings, and athletic facilities. PSD values being a responsible steward of its sites and the public dollars that fund them. In keeping with that value, the district set out to discover new ways to operate each building as efficiently as possible and hired an independent third-party firm through a competitive process.
The PSD Board of Education and superintendent invite members of the PSD community to participate in an upcoming community engagement session from 6 to 7 p.m., Tuesday, Oct. 17, at Fort Collins High School, 3400 Lambkin Way in Fort Collins.
The focus of this session will be district long-range planning. During this session, participants will have the opportunity to ask questions and talk with Board of Education directors and the superintendent about district long-range planning.
Poudre School District's Calendar Committee is seeking the PSD community's input on future school year calendars. There are many considerations that inform the development of a balanced school year calendar and we strive to create calendars that take into account the interests of our students, families, and staff.
