Upcoming Events and Important Dates

-
Jeffco Public Schools Ed Center, 1829 Denver W Dr, Golden, CO 80401

Have you ever wondered what it is like to be a student with Dyslexia? Join us for a Dyslexia simulation on October 9 from 5:30-7:30 p.m. at the Jeffco Ed Center to better understand the experience of students with Dyslexia. This session will provide insights into the challenges and strengths of Dyslexic learners.

Participants will work through five tasks that simulate what it is like to have dyslexia/dygraphia, as well as learn about dyslexia. It is recommended that participants be 11+ old and do not have dyslexia. Students that have dyslexia may attend and support the education of their loved ones. Child care is not provided.

Please RSVP by Tuesday, October 8 to admin@verticalskillsacademy.org

This event is hosted by Vertical Skills Academy in collaboration with the Jeffco Teaching and Learning Department

The seventh annual Colorado Free Application Days will be held on Tuesday, October 15th - Thursday, October 17th. 

The Colorado Free Application Days campaign is an initiative designed to inspire more Coloradans to continue their education. From Tuesday, Oct. 15 through Thursday, Oct. 17, 2024, all 32 public colleges and universities in Colorado and several private institutions will waive their application fees, making it free for anyone to submit an application. By waiving application fees—a common barrier to higher education—Colorado Free Application Days aims to improve access to further education and training, which is becoming increasingly critical in the state’s rapidly changing economy.

The days cap off Colorado Applies Month, a five-week, statewide campaign that encourages high school juniors and seniors – and adults – to select an education or training option that’s best for them and apply to that program when eligible to do so. The statewide push is designed to increase Colorado’s college-going and FAFSA and CASFA completion rates. The campaign aims to support low-income and first-generation students and to help keep Colorado students in state.

You can visit the campaign webpage for instructions on how your students can participate. Instructions will be finalized and posted on the webpage before October 1, 2024.
