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.

What is your favorite meal?

Our students that are multilingual selected their favorite recipes from home and created posters of them. Students described the taste and texture of the dish as well as why they chose the recipe. They presented their posters to 1st and 2nd grade classes. Then students presented their posters to their families and shared their foods with each other. It was a great (and delicious) cultural exchange!

Veteran's Day Performance

Elwell 5th Grade Students performed a Community Concert to honor our active and reserve military members on Tuesday, November 11, 2025 on the Learning Stairs.

Veterans, families, community, staff and students joined for a performance by the entire 5th grade class as they presented Greg Gilpin’s Armed Forces - The Pride of America in honor of our military service members.  This was a free and open concert for the school and community.
