Steamboat Today: Schools are among our most critical assets
The success the Steamboat Springs School District has had in attracting and retaining top-notch teachers and staff is the primary reason our schools are ranked among the top 10 in Colorado. They are the human assets that help to rank our schools among our very top community assets.
However, the Steamboat Springs School District cannot continue that legacy without the fiscal means to modernize and expand our school buildings to prepare them for future growth.
Some of our existing schools’ important educational assets are overdue for repairs. And in the next several years, school district officials and members of citizens groups tell us, we will likely need to add classrooms to the high school, expand the common spaces at Strawberry Park Elementary School, and possibly build a new elementary school.
