Visitors came by and tapped a child on the shoulder and the student would tell the visitor about his or her historical figure. Pocahontas, Martin Luther King, Jr., Neil Armstrong, Albert Einstein and others were represented in the living museum.

Englewood's Fitness Program Recognized
This week, EdNews Colorado took special notice of Colorado school districts' efforts around health and wellness. In the article, mention was given to Englewood's program, noting "In Englewood schools, staff wellness efforts have ramped up in the last couple years, said Dale Lumpa, who serves half-time as the district’s wellness coordinator and half-time as a physical education teacher at Charles Hay World School.
In addition to fitness classes and health screenings, the district has updated its wellness web page, created a staff newsletter and enlisted “super champions” to promote wellness activities and answer employee questions.
“We really want one of the best wellness programs in the country. That’s our goal,” said Lumpa."
