IRS990/Desc0In the 2016-2017 school year, Watershed provided an innovative, challenging education to 85 students in grades 6-12. 100% of graduates gained admission to a four-year college or university, and the students continued to demonstrate higher-than-average levels of intellectual and emotional engagement as determined by national studies (HSSSE and MGSSE). Our academic program included a project-based math program, lab science, diverse arts electives, literature, and social sciences. Most of these disciplines were taught in a unique interdisciplinary format that challenged students to connect academic content to real-world issues. Watershed's global programs took students to countries including Peru, Guatemala, and Nicaragua, and these programs were accessible to all students without requiring additional fees. Watershed served a diverse student body that matched the number of students of color in the broader Boulder County population. Accessibility was also achieved by providing some financial aid to 40% of Watershed students. In 2016-2017, Watershed continued to be a force for educational innovation outside its walls. Watershed's program gained recognition by local news media (Boulder Daily Camera and Channel 9 news), and the school provided teacher training to over 100 teachers at other schools.
