Fred Tjardes School of Innovation Bond Project
-
Each school will be provided funding for instructional upgrades to be determined through a collaborative process that will include the school community. Improvements could include STEM labs, project-based learning spaces, furniture, classroom modifications, fine arts equipment and supplies, health and wellness equipment and spaces, or other capital improvements that support programs and students.
As Jefferson Junior High School and the Transitions Program move out of the Cameron Building to the former Jefferson High School, room is being made for the Fred Tjardes School of Innovation. Fred Tjardes has been housed this year temporarily on the University of Northern Colorado campus. Some walls are being taken down at the Cameron building to accommodate this innovative school, which uses project-based learning. Other renovations will be completed this summer so the school can open in its new, permanent home in August.

Several walls were removed to open up spaces for the innovation school over the summer. Next summer, exterior doors will be replaced and some will be added. In addition, a secure, vestibule entry will be constructed.
