Working for a more sustainable future: BVSD seniors ready to take on the climate challenges of their world

This month, 51 BVSD seniors will proudly wear natural cotton cords and medals made of sustainably sourced wood at their graduations, signifying they earned the Seal of Climate Literacy. 

“The SCL is a perfect fit for BVSD students, since it naturally aligns with our greenBVSD efforts. It also leverages Grad+ (BVSD’s career and college readiness framework) and BVSD partner relationships,” BVSD science coordinator Erin Greenwood explained. “We are committed to creating opportunities for every student to graduate with climate literacy and college and career readiness.”

Bullying incidents trend down for third consecutive year, according to student survey

Student reports of bullying have declined for the third consecutive year, reaching a new low of 15.9%. The data show a 6.1 point decrease in the percentage of students reporting being bullied over the last three years. Another highlight is that we had equitable progress as this downward trend was reflected across all racial and ethnic student groups. This is a testament to our schools daily commitment to classroom management, social emotional learning, bullying prevention implementation, and relationship-building.

Keeping Kids at the Center: Meet BVSD’s New Deputy Superintendent

“In every role I’ve had,” she said, “I’ve tried to keep kids at the center."

The choice of Dr. Nativity Miller to become Boulder Valley School District’s next Deputy Superintendent brings both an opportunity for continuity and change.

Continuity in the sense that Dr. Miller has helped shape nearly every major academic and strategic effort in BVSD over the past eight years. Change in the sense that her new role expands her ability to influence the district’s future at a critical moment for public education.
