Congratulations, Yetis! A group of Snowy Peaks students, led by science teacher Mr. Nathan Schwalen, attended the Kid Wind Challenge at CSU Denver today. The two middle school teams brought home 1st & 2nd places, and the high school team brought home 3rd! We are SO proud!

From our Yeti family to yours, have a wonderful and well-deserved break! We're gonna rock 2024! #be_legendary @summitk12 @TonyByrdSuper @MaggyTovar1

We challenge every student at Snowy Peaks to run a Brighten the Room Project, an activity that makes someone else’s day better. Today, the Yetis decided to send SMS and SP families off to Fall Break, handing out candy and cards to cars after school. Have a great break everyone!

How do we teach students “the Yeti way?” Teachers step back and let our Yetis teach each other. A proud moment from our Yeti Team Captains. #be_legendary

Snowy Peaks is off to a bang! The 2023 student orientation was incredible. Student-led activities focused on building community and defining The Yeti Way: who we are, what we do, and how we make a difference. #be_legendary

A great first day for the Yetis! We Believe! #be_legendary

I would argue that a principal should still spend some amount of time teaching. Lead from the front.

Wow! Recent Yeti graduate, Sam Burke, is a national champion in the Skimo Vertical and Sprint, and he represented the US in Spain at the World Championships in February. Sam is also an Adidas sponsored athlete on the trail running team at Western. Yeti proud! #be_legendary
