Phoenix Newsletter

Greetings Phoenix!

It's hard to believe that we are one week away form graduation and one and a half weeks away form the school year! It has been a pleasure to work with all of our outstanding students this year. We would like to say congratulations to our class of 2024 graduates as we celebrated them this morning with a senior brunch. Next week's newsletter will be the final newsletter of the 2023-2024 school year. However, be sure to follow us on our social media pages as we will be active throughout the Summer!

Students went to the Olympic Training Center to better understand how physical and mental disabilities can't hold you back form achieving your dreams! We toured the Olympic center and learned about the perseverance and work ethic needed to be an Olympic athlete. Our tour guide, Connor, is a paralympic swimmer with dwarfism who shared his experiences with us. He was an inspiration to us all!

Discovery went to Coors Field for Math Day with the Rockies! It was an awesome day and we were able to relax and watch a baseball game. Our science teacher, Mr. Wenberg, was unable to attend, but we found his doppleganger in the stands! Check out our video and pictures below!

Our graduating seniors took a little trip to the Cheyenne Mountain Resort for brunch this Friday! They received some sentimental, handmade Discovery awards and some good eats. We are so proud of you all and we are excited to see you walk across the stage next Friday!

Teacher lounge? More like teacher chill zone!

Teachers were showered with gifts and food all week, along with a relaxing remodel of their lounge. A couch, Caribbean music, and a tropical aesthetic included!

Students showed their appreciation as well. Thank you all!
