Talent show night = pure joy.

So much courage, creativity, and personality on that stage and the crowd showed up BIG to cheer them on. This is what it’s all about! 💚

These bulletin boards aren’t just decoration, they’re a window into our classrooms.

Every display showcases student work, growth, and the pride our kids take in what they’re learning each day. When students see their efforts valued and visible, it builds confidence and a sense of ownership in their school.

They also invite our families in. From helping create displays to stopping by and seeing their child’s work on the wall, these boards spark connection, conversation, and community.

At Copper Mesa, even our walls tell a story and it’s one we’re proud to share. 💚

Our Copper Mesa Daughter Dance was just so much fun. 💚

Balloons everywhere, girls carefully picking out beads for friendship bracelets, mini golf putts that got very competitive, and a whole lot of dancing (and spinning and more dancing).

The best part? Watching the girls grab their grown-ups and pull them onto the dance floor like it was the most important thing in the world. These are the kinds of nights they’ll remember.

Huge thank you to our amazing PTO for planning such a special evening. It takes a lot of behind-the-scenes work to make a night feel this effortless and joyful and we are so grateful. 💚

Proof that school should be fun.

Sometimes a picture says more than I ever could.
When families ask what it feels like here… this is it.

Cabin cheers, muddy knees, and big smiles 💚

This is what learning looks like when kids feel safe, connected, and excited to be together.

Outdoor Education is just one of the ways we build confidence, leadership, teamwork, and lifelong friendships.

We are so grateful for our partnership with Mountain Vista High School and the incredible students of the Sociedad Honoraria Hispánica!

This week, our high school leaders visited Copper Mesa Elementary School to read bilingual books with our kindergarten, second, and fifth grade students. Watching lightbulbs go off as our learners used context clues to discover the meaning of Spanish words was pure joy.

We feel so fortunate to partner with SHH not only for these meaningful read-alouds, but also through our CME Spanish Club. Each week, high school students come to learn, dance, and support our kids as they grow their language skills and confidence.

This is what community, connection, and lifelong learning look like. Thank you, Vista, for pouring into our students!

Our cafeteria has a beautiful new look and it’s straight from the hearts of our students. 💚

Thanks to our incredible PTO, our fifth and sixth graders worked together on this paint-by-number mural as a special gift to the school before they head off to middle school in just a few short months. Watching them collaborate, encourage one another, and take pride in their work was truly special.

This mural represents more than a Rocky Mountain trail scene; it reflects the journey our students have taken together and the strong community they’ve helped build here. Most of all, it was meaningful for them to give back and leave their mark on a place that has been home for so many important memories.

We are so proud of this class and so grateful to our PTO for creating opportunities that bring our community together.

Our first graders celebrated the 101st day of school with a 101 Dalmatians theme and some truly priceless writing. Students imagined what life will be like when they’re 101 years old, some dressed as dalmatians, all full of creativity.

I had the chance to hear a few students read their pieces, and it brought me so much joy (and laughter!). One student plans to have kids… and admits they’ll be “annoying.” Another will be doing yoga with friends at 101.

Moments like these remind us that learning is joyful, meaningful, and full of wonder. We’re so proud of our 101-days-smarter first graders!

Our second-grade scientists reached for the stars last week with an incredible guest presentation from Mark Fry of Blue Origin. He visited our classrooms to share the wonders of space exploration and the engineering behind rocket flight.

One of the highlights was the Mail to Space project. Students wrote personal postcards that will travel into orbit aboard the New Shepard spaceship. When they return to Earth, the postcards will be mailed back with an official “Flown to Space” stamp, a lasting reminder of their connection to the future of space travel.

We are so grateful to the Fry family and our supportive community for providing the stamps and resources that made this hands-on, high-flying learning experience possible. Experiences like this spark curiosity, creativity, and big dreams.

🎉🐾 Copper Mesa turned 20 this year— and the celebration continues! 🥳

To honor two decades of learning, community, and heart, Copper Mesa PTO - CMEA hosted a Cooper the Cougar stuffie party — and it was a hit!

Students got to:
✨ Adopt and name their very own Cooper
📜 Create a birth certificate
⭐ Make a wishing star
👕 Dress their stuffie in a special 20-Year Anniversary shirt

We were also thrilled to welcome local author Marlo Neuhaus Franks, who read her books Popsicles in Space and Popsicles at Sea, signed books for families, and answered students’ thoughtful questions about how authors become published. 📚

Twenty years of growing curious minds and strong community — and we’re just getting started.

📣 Open Enrollment is open now.

It’s how we grow confident learners and curious humans - together, in community.
