TREE program with Catamount Center and Colorado College, 5th grade.

Every year, Columbine's fifth grade students commit to a semester of scientific inquiry with Catamount Center and Colorado College. School research in combination with field studies on Fridays culminates in the scientific presentations during Columbine Learning Expo in December. Columbine teaching staff, Colorado College professors, students, and fellows are the proud partners of this inspiring work.

Elevate Environmental Education (E3), Kindergarten - 5th grades.

Columbine's Master classes inspired District-wide programming and "Elevate Environmental Education (E3)" was born. Catamount Institute was one of the very first partners of the district in developing a robust and award-winning programming. Every elementary student (every year, every school) delves into minimum of ten hours of environmental science under the skilled guidance of Catamount Institute professionals.
