Bucket 🪣 filling day!!! Doesn’t get much better than bringing 4,000 staff from 50-plus schools together as “1” to celebrate all that we’ll accomplish this year in support of student success. #FiveStarProud #schoolpr

@Cindyjowarner @Adams12 Thank you @Cindyjowarner Hope you’re doing well my friend!

@JoeSchoolPR @Adams12 Happy work Anniversary @JoeSchoolPR! They are very lucky to have you!

Wow! 20 years in #schoolpr with @Adams12. I’ve experienced a lot over those years 🎢 but what I carry with me the most are the incredible relationships with #schoolpr leaders I’ve had the opportunity to work with in my district and across the nation. Thank you to each of you.

Good news tidbit …. in 2016 @Adams12 had 167 students earn 180 industry certifications in welding, auto, certified nursing assistant, construction & more. By 2023 those numbers had exploded — w/ 723 students earning 3928 industry certifications! #FiveStarProud #ELEVATESuccess

With more than 30,000 students and over 4,000 staff members, the Five Star District offers the benefits of a large district with a close-knit feel. We strive to meet each student's and staff member's individual and collective needs. We are #FiveStarProud

We served over 5500 multilingual learners last year — & developing their English reading/writing skills is critical for their future success. We’ve now exceeded state growth averages at every level of schooling for 5 years straight. #FiveStarProud

Leaders from ⁦@westminsterco⁩ presented at the State of the City event today re progress made in public safety, commercial development, & more! @adams12 is proud to be 1 of 3 school districts providing an outstanding education to the City’s young residents!

⭐ It's been a great first week of school! ⭐ The excitement felt across all schools is energizing and really sets the stage for students and staff to start the year strong. Welcome back! #ELEVATESuccess #FiveStarProud

The secret is out ….. STEM Launch is a great place to learn & play! The school had excellent academic growth last year & is 100 students over its projected enrollment this year! #FiveStarProud

Our @adams12 Back to School Bash has been a blast! We’ve handed out thousands of backpacks stuffed w/school supplies, connected families to community resources, & shown our students the inside of a medical helicopter!

Congratulations, Janet, for your work in providing high quality CTE experiences to @adams12 students & leading/contributing to CTE expansion at the state level!

The first thing new @NSPRA President @TrentAllenSays talks about in his #nspra2023 speech? Connectedness and belonging. That says a lot about how he'll approach his role and what members can expect. 💛

@tjentz @NSPRA @NSPRA_ED @cateked @Cindyjowarner @TrentAllenSays @jenndericco @PhilCampbell6 @musiccaab @juliaaburgos You’re a rock star #schoolpr pro and an amazing leader; privileged to have had the opportunity to serve alongside you. You draw out the best in people. Signed, Papa Joe 😊

Life is good when your daughter decides to treat YOU to dessert 😊

@SuptGdowski is a fantastic leader on the court for @Adams12… and he’s a great person off the court as well 😊 Check out this story in the @denverwestword about his old school @nuggets can collection. Heartwarming. #FiveStarProud #schoolpr Let’s go Nuggets!!!

@musiccaab @mneuman12 @glenview34 @Adams12 @NSPRA You’re correct! Our Leaders of Color meet monthly. Here’s more info from the Gold Mine session: nspra.org/Awards/Award-W…

@mneuman12 @glenview34 I'd love to learn more about this! I went to a goldmine session from @Adams12 (at least I think so... Is that right @JoeSchoolPR?) at last year's @NSPRA seminar but didn't get around to implementing anything.

A1: The @glenview34 Affinity Group! These teachers create authentic, inclusive, & intersectional spaces tailored specifically for educators of Color in D34. They identify barriers to retention and propose and advocate for solutions! #k12prchat

16 year tradition at Mountain View Elementary… the DHH Signing Choir 🤟#FiveStarProud #APlaceForYou

@MatthewCStamp I recognize that place 😊 Love Red Rocks Amphitheatre!

Congratulations to all newly elected members of the Colorado State Board of Education who were sworn in today, including former @Adams12 Board President Kathy Plomer. Thank you for your service to public education. #FiveStarProud @codepted

Our Girls' Day In event was a huge success! We had plenty of students get hands-on experience in our FutureForward programs. They participated in programs like Crime Scene Investigations, Welding Technology, Sports Medicine, and much more. #ELEVATESuccess #FiveStarProud
