Stacking Up Skills for the Future

Our 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders from Elwell Elementary, Milliken Intermediate, and Pioneer Ridge came together for the 21st Annual Speed Stacking Competition—and WOW did they bring the energy!

Yes, it was a competition… but the real victories were in the perseverance, goal setting, teamwork, and encouragement we saw at every single table. These are the exact skills we want for OuR Graduates, and our students showed them in record‑breaking amounts.

Bonus: our 5th graders got an early chance to build relationships with the classmates they’ll join next year at Roosevelt Middle School. New friendships = already stacking success for the future! And while the cups were flying fast, the connections were built even faster.

Five Years of Building Futures Together

Spaces that Inspire. Learning that Lasts.

For the past five years, Weld RE-5J has worked hand-in-hand with our community to create environments where every learner—and every educator—feels a deep sense of belonging. With the support of the community and voters, the passing of the 2020 Bond allowed multiple capital projects and maintenance improvements to launch. These enhancements are not just about buildings; they are about opportunities for growth, passion, and preparing for the future. Together, we have ensured that our schools are safe, accessible, welcoming, and designed for collaboration and innovation. Every improvement reflects our shared commitment: to extend the life of our facilities, reduce costly repairs, and provide spaces that are developmentally appropriate, aesthetically pleasing, and ready for tomorrow. We are proud to celebrate that journey—and the community that made it possible.

Milliken Intermediate School No School
all day

Our kids are both at Roosevelt now, and have had a wonderful experience. The teachers care, the administration is wonderful, and the experience has been great. There are so many opportunities for a student to complete advanced placement courses, dual enrollment courses, or career education. Our kids will be ready for life after high school, whether that’s at a university, community college, or in the workforce. No one is overlooked or left behind at Roosevelt.
