Some of you may know that I celebrated a birthday milestone this week. Both personally and professionally, it gave me a chance to reflect on my time here at Breckenridge. I am truly excited about the growth we’ve experienced as a district over the past few years.

We’ve seen academic growth, stronger family engagement, and improved communication. We’ve enhanced our facilities and continued to build an excellent educational environment that supports student success—no matter their interests or goals.

Just as I continue to grow older, our district will continue to grow as well. We are always setting new goals for improvement and striving to better ourselves for the sake of our students.

One goal. One team. Every student thrives.

Learning Environment/Culture

Breckenridge Community Schools will build relationships with a focus on creating engaging opportunities that encourage student involvement. 

Huskie P.R.I.D.E. in Action!

During the first few weeks of the school year, our advisory teachers guided students through what it means to live out our Huskie P.R.I.D.E. expectations in every space on campus, hallways, classrooms, cafeteria, and beyond.

P = Participation – Be engaged and involved

R = Respect – Treat others, spaces, and yourself with care

I = Integrity – Do the right thing, even when no one is watching

D = Determination – Stay focused and never give up

E = Excellence – Strive to be your best, every day

By learning and practicing these expectations together, our Huskies are creating a positive and supportive environment where everyone can thrive.

Let’s keep showing our Huskie P.R.I.D.E. everywhere we go!

Here is a link to a detailed look at our Huskie P.R.I.D.E. Matrix that was created with student and staff input.

Communications/Community Engagement:  

Breckenridge Community Schools will promote collaborative partnerships between the school, parents, and community to increase communication and engagement. 

🌟 A big shout-out to our FFA leadership students for sharing highlights from their summer leadership retreat with their peers! 🙌

Thank you for stepping up as leaders and showing what it means to inspire, guide, and encourage others. 💙💛 We are proud of you for taking the time to share your experiences and help grow leadership across our Huskie community. 🐾🌱

1st Hour Lifetime Sports Update!

Today’s volleyball game was a huge win, not just on the scoreboard, but in spirit too!

Full participation

Great teamwork

Constant encouragement all around

Everyone brought their energy and supported each other every step of the way. Way to show what Lifetime Sports is all about!

Our students have been busy growing plants in our hydroponics Flex Farms! 🌱 This hands-on project gives them a chance to learn, grow, and soon enjoy the results of their hard work. Nothing beats the experience of planting, caring for, and tasting something you’ve grown yourself!

Personnel/Leadership 

Breckenridge Community Schools will support, recruit, and retain highly qualified personnel to collaborate and meet the needs of our students. 

This week our chapter had the distinguished honor of performing the FFA Opening Ceremonies during a memorial luncheon for a former advisor. Mr. Valliere served as the Breckenridge FFA Advisor from 1967–1974. We are truly grateful to have been invited to take part in such a meaningful and honorable event. I am very proud of our students for representing Breckenridge FFA and carrying on a tradition that truly sets our organization apart.

Operations 

Breckenridge Community Schools will strategically utilize resources to provide an optimal environment for staff, students, and community.
