Flynn Community

Outdoor Learning Experiences

Flynn utilizes the natural beauty of Colorado for educational field trips and outdoor programs, such as Girls on the Run and Outdoor Education in Rocky Mountain National Park. These experiences, ranging from kindergarteners visiting pumpkin patches to middle schoolers exploring national parks, underscore our belief in the value of learning beyond classroom walls.

Extracurricular Offerings

Family Involvement

At Flynn, fostering a vibrant community spirit is at the heart of our ethos. Central to this is our active Parent-Teacher Organization (PTO), which plays a pivotal role in connecting families and the school. The PTO organizes engaging events like family skate nights, creating enjoyable experiences for all. Additionally, we encourage family involvement throughout the school year, offering various opportunities for parents and guardians to volunteer. Whether it's assisting in classrooms, supervising recess, or participating in field trips, this involvement is key to enriching the educational environment and strengthening our community bond.

The Flynn PTO (Parent Teacher Organization) meets the second Wednesday of the month at 4:00 pm in the Flynn Library. All parents of Flynn students are welcome to attend! Babysitting and Spanish interpreter services are provided. Questions? Email Carrie Strand at cstrand@wps.org.
