Exciting News for Our Students! We are thrilled to announce that the Westminster Community Foundation (WCF) has generously contributed $35,000 to the Westminster Public Schools Foundation to support the transformative Ranum Reimagined project. This initiative is set to revolutionize the Iver C. Ranum High School into an innovation campus centered on Career Technical Education (CTE) and STEM programming. This funding will serve as a challenge grant, unlocking additional resources to enhance our students' educational experience. By providing cutting-edge tools, supplies, and equipment, WCF is helping ensure that our students are well-prepared for the demands of the modern workforce. As Executive Director Natalie Martinez stated, “Ranum Reimagined is a vision for the future where K-12, higher education, and industry work collaboratively to prepare students for a pathway to success.” We're excited about the unique opportunities this campus will offer, allowing students to earn both their high school diploma and college credit or industry certificates in fields like advanced manufacturing, biotechnology, construction, cybersecurity, and more! A big thank you to WCF for believing in our mission and making a meaningful impact on our community's youth! Together, we're paving the way for a brighter future.

Today, we are wrapping up the Summer Bridge program, which Premier Members Credit Union sponsored. It's been a busy week for the graduates as they begin to prepare for college. We thank our presenters, who provided their expertise in adulting, financial literacy, dressing for success, Imposter Syndrome, and navigating LinkedIn! These are just a few of the essential topics covered this week. Thank you to our students and our presenters. It has been a productive week! Thank you: Robyn Balsley, Karen Bigalow, Brian Woodman, Mayra Granados, and Sam Casanova! https://lnkd.in/gc5VCeyM

Lottie is a WPS Foundation Board Member and my go-to person for all things CTE in the district. She is a dedicated professional who leads our youth on professional pathways. Thank you for all you do, Lottie!

Today, we're conducting interviews to decide which students will receive college scholarships from the WPS Foundation. We're truly grateful for the dedication and effort shown by all our candidates. It's tough because we can't give scholarships to everyone, even though they are all worthy candidates. Our interviewers are community members who care about our students and public education. They include alumni, past scholarship winners, former school board members, and corporate and community partners. Thank you to the City of Westminster, Vulcan Fire and CommonSpirit. Employees from these companies are volunteering their time today to help our community and our students, and we are grateful! #vulcanfire #cityofwestminster #commonspirit
