COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT

We invited PTO and PTA leaders across BVSD to a Parent Partnership Summit last month to help them strengthen their fundraising efforts and connect with other parent leaders to grow their impact in our schools. Representatives from the NAACP Boulder County shared resources and ideas for implementing or strengthening school DEI committees before a Q&A session with BVSD superintendent Dr. Anderson about upcoming needs and current district issues.

We are humbled by the outpouring of support we received at our annual gala, Together We Build. From the family style dining experience to the lively conversations to raising 56 paddles for our 56 schools, the evening was centered around community. Together we raised over $300,000 to help students build resilience, confidence and their path to success.

This year’s winner, Anahi Quintana, is a a 6th grade ELA teacher at Broomfield Heights Middle who has an “all together now” approach to student success.

Lisa’s time at BVSD has been marked by her commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion; leadership in creating a welcoming environment; and fierce advocacy for her students and peers.
