Peer Engagement
What is Peer Engagement?
Peer Engagement is an opportunity for students to create new friendships and to build community within our school by offering students high interest, hands-on, enrichment activities they can choose to attend throughout the morning.
Peer Engagement runs from 8 AM to 12 PM (Noon) featuring a four period schedule. Each period, students choose to participate in one activity from a menu of options. Sessions often include STEM activities, Arts and Crafts, PE Workouts, Board Games, Escape Rooms and more!
Many of our activities involving our students going off campus (Walk & Talk, Run Club, Geocaching, etc). For students to participate in any session that goes off campus, a completed permission slip must be submitted! Please contact the main office at 720-972-7430 if you need a permission slip.
Below is the Secondary list of sessions for Peer Engagement on 5/21/25.
