Welcome to the Weld County School District Re-3J website! Our school district encompasses over 480 square miles and includes rural and urban locations in North Eastern Colorado approximately 35 miles from Denver. Five separate communities make up our district (Lochbuie, Hudson, Keenesburg, Prospect Valley and Roggen), but one goal is shared by all within our district boundaries – we will all work together to create the very best learning environment possible in order for our students to become the best they can be.

Once entering this website, you will find a great deal of important facts regarding each of our three preschool through sixth grade elementary schools, one seventh and eighth grade junior high, one ninth through twelfth grade high school, an alternative education center and district central office. Our district provides for open enrollment options giving district families choice in the schools their students attend. In addition, you will also find information regarding district policies and practices from employment to education.

Our district mission is focused on increasing student success and achievement so that each student will have the tools necessary to make positive choices for their future. Our district standards are high and academic achievement levels are increasing toward these standards. Our experienced and dedicated teaching and student support staff provide high quality instruction to all students and individualized instruction to all students needing additional support to obtain the standards set for their success.

Our Board of Education adopted a vision statement of “Pathways to Success.” With this as a guide, we have recently created a Career Pathways program in our high school that allows students to identify areas of interest and take classes within those areas of interest. These Pathways ensure that students are also meeting the district graduation requirements while building skills for their future careers.

Our Weld County School District Re-3J administrative team provides leadership and collaboration to the school board and schools in the areas of effective management, researched based instructional strategies, data analysis, individualized and differentiated instruction, and mastery learning which set high expectations for the increase of achievement for all students. The district administrative team meets on a monthly basis collaborating and planning for the successful implementation of professional development for staff which focuses on effective successful strategies to provide support for their work with students each and every day. We strive to build capacity for success for all students and staff, fostering collaboration within and among each of our schools. 

Our goal is to respond to the needs of our students and the communities we serve by providing the highest quality education possible. Please call at 303 536-2000 if you have any questions or if we can assist you in any way.

Sincerely,

Susie Townsend

Superintendent of Schools
