Vote for Colfax schools levy

 

February 3, 2022



The Colfax School District challenges itself to provide a positive learning environment. My husband and I have watched our four children go through the Colfax educational system well prepared to enter their higher education careers. As graduates, they entered professional careers thankful for their educational foundation and the work ethic learned while in the district.

I was fortunate to teach in the district for 35 years, retiring from the classroom in 2010. The last 12 years I have been contracted by the district to serve as a curriculum coach, curriculum director, and facilitator of various assessments and professional development.

The school district provided a variety of essential professional development opportunities. Most recently, Jennings Elementary worked with the Whitman County Library offering STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) experiences for teachers too. The district completed a curriculum adoption keeping current curriculum meeting state standards. Both professional development and curriculum adoption are an integral part of learning for teachers and students and are financed by the enrichment levy.

Thank you for the support you have shown over the years to pass our school levies and the recent bond that financed a state of the art high school facility and upgrades to Jennings Elementary.

The district is working diligently to maintain high standards and close gaps created as a result of COVID restrictions. We ask for your continued support to provide a strong learning environment for our students and staff. Please vote for Colfax schools.
