Welcome to Charles Hay Elementary.  Our school is a vibrant community of learners!  Charles Hay teachers are caring professionals who are ready and willing to do whatever it takes to ensure your child’s success. Charles Hay is recognized by our families as a safe and caring place for children, with high expectations for social, emotional and physical well-being as well as academic achievement.  A strong partnership with our parents contributes to the exceptional climate.


At Charles Hay, we proudly adhere to the International Baccalaureate’s Primary Years Programme (PYP) curriculum, and are working toward authorization as an IB World school.  This challenging thematic curriculum inspires students to think and to care about the world around them, while acquiring solid skills in reading, writing and math as mandated by Colorado state standards. These are taught through inquiry.  Charles Hay’s Programme of Inquiry (POI) outlines the units taught.


 

Message from the Principal

The Learner Profile is also an integral part of the curriculum, and addresses character education. In the spirit of international mindedness, the traits and attributes of the Learner Profile are woven into daily instruction.


In addition to IB we offer many special programs and activities designed to meet the individual needs of each and every student.   Come visit!  We’d be delighted to show you around.  I’m certain you’ll agree with us, Charles Hay is a great place for students: Learning Today for Tomorrow’s World!
