100 days left until graduation. Let that sink in. 🎓💙
Our Atlas High School seniors kicked off their final 100 days with a celebration that hit ALL the feels. Principal Novak shared how proud he is of everything they've accomplished to get here. A slideshow of their years at Atlas played (cue the tears 😭), and the excitement was absolutely electric.

This is it. The home stretch. And we couldn't be prouder of this class.

Let's finish strong, seniors! 💪

When you show up to school and BAM>>>surprise sticker day! 🎉

Last Friday, our middle school teachers handed out stickers all day long, and students wore them with PRIDE. Look at these faces!

This is what community looks like at Atlas. It's not always the big moments; sometimes it's the small, unexpected joys that remind students they're part of something special.

Two students from EVERY elementary grade got to experience something magical last week! 🎭✨

Our students attended a special performance of Peter and the Wolf at the Pikes Peak Center for the Arts, featuring the Colorado Springs Philharmonic, the Colorado Springs Youth Symphony, AND dancers from the Colorado Conservatory of Dance.

Talk about exposure to the arts!

This two-part performance was engaging, beautiful, and exactly the kind of opportunity we want our students to have.

Arts education matters. Experiences like this matter. And seeing our students light up during live performance? That matters most of all. 💙

Today, we honor President's Day, a reminder of the importance of civic engagement, leadership, and service to our communities.❤️️💙

At Atlas, we're committed to preparing students on their post-graduate paths to include active, thoughtful participation in our democracy. We teach critical thinking, respectful discourse, and the value of being informed citizens.

No school this week, but next week we're back at it, empowering the next generation of leaders, thinkers, and changemakers.

Sunday fact: Charter schools like Atlas are 12% more likely to earn Green Performance ratings than traditional public schools—and ALL THREE of our campuses are Green-rated. 🌟

What does that mean? It means Atlas schools meet or exceed state standards for academic achievement, student growth, and post-secondary readiness. It means our students are thriving.

If you're looking for a school where your child will be challenged, supported, and prepared for whatever comes next, Atlas is that place.

One week in and they're OBSESSED. 😍

Another phase of our middle school renovation is COMPLETE, and the new playground and sports field are officially the students' favorite place to be! (Can you blame them? Look at this!)

Thanks to the following donors, our middle schoolers now have a space to run, play, compete, and just be kids:

✨Colorado BEST grant
💫Colorado Springs Health Foundation
✨Chapman Foundation
💫El Pomar Foundation
✨Anschutz Foundation
💫First Interstate Bank
✨Giddings Foundation
💫Edmondson Foundation

The impact? Already incredible. Students are more engaged, more active, and honestly? Just happier.

This is what investing in students looks like. This is what community support makes possible. 🙌

There’s something truly special about the connection between our students, teachers, and families.

It shows up in laughter on the playground, in trusted relationships in the classroom, and in a community where everyone feels known and supported. This is what makes our schools more than a place to learn; they are a place to belong.

120 students. 120 families. One unforgettable night. ✨

Our annual Adopt a Student event brought our community together in the most beautiful way. Students and their families enjoyed a home-cooked meal, crafts, games, and gifts chosen just for them—all made possible by our incredible Atlas staff, local businesses, and community partners.

This year we BROKE OUR RECORD, supporting 120 students (up from 79 last year!) because when this community shows up, magic happens. 💙

To every donor, volunteer, and supporter: you reminded these families that they are seen, valued, and celebrated. Thank you for being the heart of Atlas.

Specifically, we want to shout out the following who made this event our best one yet:

  • Tribe Church, for helping us welcome families who had never participated in this program before

  • Extended Stay America, for generously donating an entire load of gifts for our student raffle

  • Atlas Staff and Board of Directors, for donating over and above what they already give daily for our Atlas students and families

  • The Robinson Family, for contributing towards our event costs and gift purchases

Want to be part of next year's event? Contact David Turner at david.turner@atlasschools.org or 719-358-7196 ext. 114.

🐸 A ribbiting time was had in honors bio last week!
Led by Mr. Cattin, students leapt into a frog dissection, muscling through some toad-ally strong smells and plenty of squirmy reactions. It wasn’t always pretty, but it was hands-on, unforgettable learning that really deepened their understanding of anatomy! 🧪😄

👋Saying goodbye is never easy, and that remains true when we said goodbye to Mr. Tom last week. Mr. Tom began his Atlas journey 14 years ago, in 2012, working as a bus monitor alongside our transportation team.

🚌Students looked forward to his kind, gentle heart as they rode to and from school every day. His wife, Michele, as seen in some of these photos, worked at Atlas as our Transportation Manager for over a decade, too. A true power couple! We are forever thankful for Michele and Tom's service to our Atlas community.

You will be missed, Mr. Tom. Thank you for everything!
