Academy Senior Walk
Academy Senior Walk

Congratulations to the class of 2025 from Academy High School! Dressed in cap and gown, our seniors took one final walk through the hallways as students and staff lined the route to cheer them on and celebrate all they’ve accomplished.

Academy High School Visits The University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus

Academy High School students in the Career and Technical Education (CTE) Health and Science program and Health Occupations Students of America (HOSA) club had an amazing visit to the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus!

The students explored cutting-edge bioengineering research and toured the state-of-the-art facilities. They also engaged in inspiring conversations with current students, learning about their journeys in the program and the fascinating research they’re involved in.

This experience not only broadened the students’ horizons beyond the classroom but also reinforced Academy High School's commitment to preparing the next generation of health and science leaders.

Thank you to everyone at CU Anschutz for welcoming us and sharing your passion for research and innovation!

Students tie dyeing shirts
Tie Dye Chemistry Lab

Academy High School students in Ms. Pfaff's Chemistry class had a special groovy lab, tie-dying t-shirts and learning the chemical reasoning behind the colorful results!

For the culmination of their chemical reaction unit, students tested their chemistry knowledge by learning the history of tie-dye, evaluating the chemical reactions of fiber reactive dye molecules, and answering the root question, "what is color and how do we perceive it?"

Students doing Mock Interviews
Mock Interviews and Resume Reviews

Seniors from Academy High School sat with volunteer professionals from the Mapleton community for mock interviews and resume reviews. The event is part of Academy High School's graduation requirements and helpful practice for upcoming scholarships.

Since the fall, students worked with staff and their peers to dial in their resumes and practiced interviewing each other for this event.

Over 30 current and retired professionals in healthcare, real estate, public relations, sales, the army, finance, and more were on hand to interview students, review their resumes, and provide feedback for students and their post-secondary plans.

Ms. Schultz's Biology classroom

Students in Ms. Lindsay Schultz’s biology class at Academy High School recently wrapped up a comprehensive – and sophisticated – project about pancreatic cancer. Students explored the ongoing research of big medical companies, created diagrams detailing how cancer travels through the body, and synthesized their learning in a pamphlet geared toward helping children understand cancer.  And, considering Lindsay was just named the Colorado Bioscience Association (CBSA) Educator of the Year, it’s no wonder her classrooms are full of budding scientists, talented chemists, aspiring machinists, and future educators.
