Black Rock Elementary School

What Black Rock Elementary School does

Black Rock Elementary School is a public K-5 elementary school located at 2000 Mountain View Blvd, Erie, Colorado, operating as a constituent school within the St. Vrain Valley Schools district — a government state entity. The school serves kindergarten through fifth grade students and their families, offering core academic programming with specialized focus areas including a designated Gifted & Talented Program and a World Language Academy where all students learn and practice a second language. Additional programs include a Mini Makers Mini-Society economics curriculum for third graders, preschool services for three to four-year-olds, summer programs, counseling and social-emotional learning, special education, library services, and Community Schools Childcare. The school mascot is the Wildcats, and the institution emphasizes individualized student support, collaborative learning, and one of the most involved parent communities across the district.

The school's technology infrastructure is built on standard district-provided educational platforms, including ClassLink for single sign-on access to applications like Seesaw, Infinite Campus as the student information system, and Schoology as the learning management system. Family communication is managed through ParentSquare (district-wide), Mailchimp newsletters, and direct channels including Twitter (@BlackRockElem) and a Facebook page. Operational integrations include Safe2Tell for anonymous safety reporting and LinqConnect for meal payments. As a public school, there is no proprietary technology developed in-house; the school consumes district-level technology services.

Black Rock operates as a tuition-free public school funded through Colorado's Healthy School Meals for All program and district tax revenue, with no commercial revenue model. The current Principal is Sharla Kaczar, and the school operates under the governance of the St. Vrain Valley Schools Board of Education, with Superintendent Don Haddad overseeing the district. Enrollment is managed through the district's standard registration process with open enrollment periods. The school does not have venture capital backing, equity structure, or commercial pricing — it is a publicly funded educational institution.
