On behalf of the Colorado ISD, CISD Board of Trustees, our students, teachers, and staff, we want to thank our community and all stakeholders for your patience, perseverance, and continued support in our shared efforts to educate each and every student. In regard to our most recent challenge working with both our county and city municipalities concerning the water infrastructure, we want to recognize and applaud the efforts of our city workers for their unwavering commitment and dedication to our community in the water works division. We have always believed that the county, city, and CISD must work together. We depend on one another, and our community is strongest when we solve challenges side by side. Based on the recent decisions to cancel school, those decisions were guided by the following criteria: 1. Integrity of the Teaching and Learning Experience: This is our single most important reason for why we exist as an educational institution, to ensure that each and every student receives a quality education. When teacher and staff numbers diminished, we were no longer able to provide instruction at the level our students deserve. 2. Inability to fully address food insecurity: A documented 67% of our students qualify for support, but more realistically closer to 80%, as many of our CHS students do not complete the necessary documentation to be counted. 3. Inability to fully support social-emotional learning (SEL): This includes meeting the needs of both our economically disadvantaged and non-economically disadvantaged students across our campuses. 4. Health and safety considerations: Ensuring proper sanitation, hydration, and safe conditions for students and staff across all facilities. The most recent water leak at the High School was identified late Friday, February 6, 2026. Emergency crews were immediately called and worked through the weekend in hopes of restoring water service by Monday, February 9, 2026. Unfortunately, a critical part was unavailable and had to be expedited. The delivery window changed several times and ultimately arrived Tuesday evening, February 10, 2026. The initial leak was repaired around 7:30 p.m. that night. However, at approximately 8:00 a.m. this morning, a second leak was discovered when water began visibly gushing above ground. Crews are currently working on this new repair, with an anticipated completion by midnight tonight. At this time, we remain hopeful that water service will be restored in time for the start of school tomorrow. Colorado ISD will continue working closely with our engineers, as well as city and county officials, to identify long-term solutions and alternatives for improving our water infrastructure and supply. Our goal is to minimize disruptions to learning while always prioritizing the safety and well-being of our students, teachers, and staff. We will continue to provide updates as new information becomes available. For factual information and real-time updates, please contact Dr. Larry Polk, Superintendent of Schools, at 325-728-1010

Senior FCCLA chapter member, Lilly Boyd had the opportunity to teach Mrs. Fox’s 1st grade class about career exploration! She wrote a lesson plan, read a book and challenged the 1st graders to think of different types of careers that they could do when they grow up! Lilly enjoyed interacting with the students and loved how they were all eager to participate! ❤️📖🐺

CISD Families, Colorado High School is currently without water as repairs are being made to address leaks on campus. Water has been temporarily turned off while maintenance works to fix the issue. In the meantime: • Bottled water is available for students and staff. • Portable restrooms are on site, and students may also use restroom facilities at the MP. • Food service is being provided and transported from the CES/CMS campus. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to repair aging pipes in a building that is over 50 years old. Our team is doing everything possible to restore full service as quickly and safely as possible. Thank you for bearing with us as we continue to take care of our students and staff.
