🎓 Education
Centaurus High School in Lafayette has updated its student center—adding a phone-free outdoor patio and extra games—to help students disconnect from their cellphones during school hours.
A new state law requires districts to adopt cellphone policies by July 1 and several, including Adams 12 and St. Vrain Valley, are revising their rules to support student well-being.
🏛️ Government
The Boulder County Active Shooter Task Force will conduct emergency training at Flatirons Community Church in Lafayette on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday to prepare for future emergencies.
