Registration for the 2017 Colorado Healthy Schools Summit is now closed. Thanks to the nearly 400 Coloradans who will be joining us for this day to celebrate schools from all over the state who are bringing all of the pieces together to create safe and healthy learning environments for our students.
For those who will be joining us, we encourage you to preview the breakout sessions that will be offered to better plan your day. For the many of you who are not able to join us "live" on March 3, we hope you'll consider joining us virtually by watching the livestream of the Healthy School Champion's Breakfast event, featuring CDE Commissioner Dr. Katy Anthes, CDPHE Executive Director Dr. Larry Wolk, and inspirational addresses from Colorado educators and students.
