📣 On February 10, at the District Office, we proudly swore in Robb Davidson as Woodland Park School District’s newly appointed Board of Education Director.
Mr. Davidson was selected following an interview process conducted by the current Board members. We are grateful for his willingness to serve our students, staff, and community in this important role.
Mr. Davidson worked as a civilian with the U.S. Air Force for 35 years. Following his retirement, he volunteered with the Pikes Peak Business and Education Alliance, helping connect local students with businesses for internship opportunities.
Both of his children are proud graduates of WPSD and are now teachers at Woodland Park Jr./Sr. High School.
Director Davidson shared that he will prioritize stabilizing relationships, encouraging hope, and advancing excellence across the district.
👏 Please join us in welcoming Mr. Robb Davidson to the WPSD Board of Education. 💚
🔔 Join us tonight for the Board of Education Regular Meeting beginning at 6 pm at the District Office.

Second grade students at Summit Elementary enjoyed hands-on lessons about Teller County history from volunteers through the Ute Pass Historical Society. Local history is part of our second grade standards, and this field trip concluded a quarter full of learning about the people who built the Ute Pass area. This was a field trip to remember. We appreciate all the docents for making it happen, as our students enjoyed living the history.
Congratulations to Summit's Destination Imagination teams. They competed at the regional competition last weekend. The 4th grade team got FIRST place in their Scientific challenge and the 5th/6th graders got SECOND place in their Technical challenge! Both teams will head to State in April!!!
Now, while this is super news, the best news is how hard they worked, persevered under pressure as a team, and how well they represented Summit! They were truly respectful, purposeful and made everyone PROUD 👏
After diving into the captivating world of Eric Carle's "The Very Busy Spider," some of our kindergarten students embarked on a thoughtful journey, reflecting on their own bustling school day activities. Embracing their inner creativity, they each selected a task that keeps them "very busy" and shared it using the sentence starter, "I am very busy..."
We're thrilled to congratulate all the amazing Gateway students who received a "shout out" during the month of January! 💚
As a special reward, these outstanding students got to putt for a prize! ⛳️🏆 Keep up the fantastic work, Gateway stars! 🌟👏
