January 23rd, 2026 Principal's Message
Hello Blevins Families,
I'd like to lead with my excitement over seeing our 8th graders begin the registration process for high school class this week. It's fun to see how they lock in about their future. Our collective work in the school community is to prepare them for the next level, and that is just around the corner. Should you have any questions about the registration process, please don't hesitate to reach out to our counseling team.
A shout out to our wrestling team for their victory over Webber last night, as well as our girls' basketball team getting off to a great start in their scrimmage with CLP. I'm proud of their commitment and teamwork. It's going to be an exciting season this winter.
Please stay warm this weekend and we can't wait to see our Bruins on Monday!
Proudly,
Joe Zappa, Principal

Dear Families of 8th Graders
The time for 9th grade registration has begun! No matter the high school your 8th grader will be attending, we will be working at Blevins to best support students in the big transition ahead. We wanted to make sure we communicated our plan, as well as provide resources for the registration process at each high school.
The dates below are for students who are planning to attend Rocky Mountain High School. If your student will be attending another high school in the district, we will be coordinating registration times with those schools within the same timeline.
- Thursday, January 22nd - Students signed up to attend Rocky Mountain HS will receive information on courses available to them for their freshman year.
- Students should be coming home with the 9th grade registration form with information on courses available to them next year.
- Thursday, January 29th - Students will sign up for their high school courses in StudentVue during the school day. We ask students to bring back the completed registration form.
- This is also something that can be done at home if you would prefer to assist with that process or your student is absent that day. All high school sites have information on how to register. (see sites linked below)
- Wednesday, February 4th - High School Counselors will be coming to Blevins to double check high school course requests.
- All course requests need to be entered by the students by this date!!!
For more information on each High School's registration process, please visit the following webpages:
Poudre Community Academy (PCA)
Polaris Expeditionary School Learning School
If you have any questions about the registration process that can't be answered by the high school websites, please email 8th grade counselors, Anna Burris (last names A - J), at annab@psdschools.org or Kirsten Bovbjerg (last names K - Z) at kbovbjerg@psdschools.org .
We're looking forward to assisting your students as they go through this important transition!
Sincerely,
Blevins Counseling Team
