Message from Principal

Dear Skyline Families,

As we head into March, I want to take a moment to recognize the hard work and dedication our students have shown this semester. With just two weeks until Spring Break, now is the time to stay focused, push through challenges, and finish strong. These next two weeks are crucial for maintaining momentum, and I encourage all students to give their best effort in class, stay on top of assignments, and take advantage of available support. Let’s keep up the hard work and make the most of this time!

Falcons Demonstrate Excellence: 

Senior Academic Standout Ash Berkowitz was named as a National Merit Scholarship Finalist!  Please join us in congratulating Ash for this incredible achievement! This means that Ash is in the top 1% of students in the Nation!

Our winter sports wrapped up their seasons this past week, and we couldn’t be prouder of our incredible student-athletes! Their hard work, dedication, and team spirit have been truly inspiring.

We are excited to announce that two robotics teams from Skyline have qualified for the state robotics tournament!  Please join us in congratulating – Jackson Holliness, Mason Stromquist, Addulah Haseed, Jacob Miracle, Sam Taylor & Milo Glass!  

On Monday, we kicked off the spring sports season, and we encourage all students to get involved! Whether you’re a seasoned athlete or looking to try something new, now is the perfect time to join a team and be part of the excitement.

Looking ahead, we’re thrilled to welcome Mariachi groups from across the state as we host the CHSAA Mariachi Festival right here at Skyline next Thursday, starting at 8:30 AM. Don’t miss this amazing event filled with music, culture, and community!

Future Ready Festival:  Get ready to see innovation in action! St. Vrain Valley Schools is hosting a Future Ready event to showcase all the incredible programs that make our district so special.

We are especially proud to share that our very own Skyline staff and students will be there presenting! It’s a wonderful opportunity to see first-hand the creativity and leadership our Falcons bring to the community every day.

Please mark your calendars—we would love to see a huge Skyline turnout to support our students! All the details you need are right here:
