Inquiry Quest is a Hulstrom expectation for all 8^th graders.  It is a project that incorporates technology, reading, writing, research, and presentation standards. The students have worked diligently and passionately to present the topic of their choice in a mixed-media format. Students are excited to showcase their hard work and learning. Please take some extra time to come and watch the presentations and celebrate this amazing accomplishment with us at Hulstrom.

Recently, Colorado Superintendents received notification if a school, or schools, in their respected school district earned either the John Irwin Award, or the Governor’s Distinguished Improvement Award.   For the 2011 school year, 249 schools in Colorado earned the John Irwin Award and or the Governor’s Distinguished Improvement Award.

 We are proud to announce that Hulstrom Options K-8 is one of only 57 schools in the state to receive both the John Irwin Award and the Governor’s Distinguished Improvement Award. 

  The 2011 John Irwin awards are awarded to schools that “exceed” expectations on the 3-year school performance framework’s indicator related to academic achievement and that “meet or exceed” expectations on the indicator related to academic growth gaps.  These schools demonstrate the highest levels of achievement not just for some students but also adequate performance across all student groups. 

 The 2011 Governor’s Distinguished Improvement awards are awarded to schools that “exceed” expectations on the 3-year school performance framework’s indicator related to academic growth and “meet or exceed” expectations on the indicator related to academic growth gaps.  These schools demonstrate the highest levels of growth for not just some students but all student groups. 

 Both of these awards are due to the hard work of your children, the staff, and you... the parents. 

Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to work with and teach your children.
