Living with two post-college roommates who both work from home, 24-year-old Joey Anderson’s daily routine as a second-year middle school teacher at Manhattan Middle School looks a lot different from those of his peers. His first exposure to BVSD was as a CU education major completing his practicum at New Vista, while working as the school's night custodian during COVID. Now he's joined the Manhattan staff as a language arts teacher with a bright future ahead.

Earlier this year, the New Vista school community and BVSD celebrated a much-anticipated milestone as students and staff started the second semester of the school year in their brand new building. The new school is remarkable not only because it was designed specifically to support New Vista’s innovative program but also because it joins the ranks of BVSD’s most sustainable schools.

Earlier this month, BVSD’s sustainability team provided the annual update to the Board on the district’s work toward goals detailed in the Sustainability Action Plan and the Green New Deal resolution. BVSD made some big sustainability gains this year across all action areas.

Students in BVSD are concerned but energized about the climate crisis and have made BVSD’s new Green Youth Council a space to take collective action and focus on hope. The Green Youth Council is a student-led group of passionate middle and high school students in the district. Their goal is to incorporate youth voices into the climate initiatives of BVSD and tackle climate issues with hope and action rather than fear.
