Aspen School District is proud to host Dr. Nicholas Kardaras, an internationally recognized psychologist, best-selling author of Glow Kids, and one of the nation’s leading experts on technology and screen addiction. His work shines a critical light on the neurological, psychological, and social impact of excessive screen use on young people and offers families practical strategies for creating healthier balance.

This event directly supports our cell phone–free policy and strengthens our community’s Wait Until 8th initiative, both of which are designed to protect student well-being, focus, and authentic relationships.

We encourage all ASD families to join us for this important conversation. Together, we can build a mountain culture that prioritizes connection, resilience, and activity—ensuring our students flourish both in school and in life.

Aspen High School Athletics is proud to announce the launch of an exciting new initiative: a Digital Wall of Fame. Using state-of-the-art software from Rocket Alumni Solutions, Inc., this platform will celebrate the accomplishments of our past and present athletes. Located in the Aspen High School Gym Lobby, the interactive Wall of Fame will also be accessible online, making our athletic history available to everyone.\ Over the years, Aspen High School has unfortunately lost valuable records, photos, and other documentation of our athletic achievements. This project aims to recover and preserve these pieces of history. We are reaching out to alumni, parents, and the Aspen community for help. If you have team photos, broken records that were not documented, or other memorabilia, please share them with us to contribute to this lasting tribute.\ This project is about more than preserving history; it’s an opportunity to engage and empower our students. Sarah Ward and her journalism classes are gathering photos, yearbooks, and any related documentation, while Anita Moose and her Skier TV classes are filming, conducting interviews, and designing the visual elements of the Wall of Fame. Together, they are researching archives to uncover forgotten milestones and achievements. Through this collaboration, students are gaining invaluable real-world skills in journalism, digital organization, and historical research while contributing to a meaningful initiative that celebrates Aspen High School’s athletic excellence.\ The Digital Wall of Fame will feature a searchable database where users can explore athletic achievements by year, sport, athlete, or team. The platform will include dynamic content such as photos, videos, social media integration, and opportunities for sponsorship. Regular updates by students, faculty, and community members will ensure the Wall of Fame remains a living document of Aspen’s athletic excellence.\ The Wall of Fame is not just for Aspen High School; it’s for the entire Aspen community. By sharing stories and achievements, we aim to strengthen the bond between the school and the community. This initiative will inspire current and future athletes while preserving the legacy of those who came before them.\ We invite everyone to participate in this exciting project. Whether by contributing memorabilia, sharing stories, or supporting the initiative in other ways, your involvement is vital. Together, we can celebrate the accomplishments of Aspen High School athletes, preserve our athletic history for generations to come, and inspire pride and engagement within the Aspen community.

We want to take this special opportunity to express our heartfelt gratitude for the Aspen Booster Club unwavering support in making this incredible project a reality. Their dedication and generosity have been instrumental in bringing this vision to life, and it simply would not have been possible without them.

For those interested in learning more about the Aspen Booster Club or enrolling as a member, we are excited to share that this information is now readily accessible via our new interactive TV as well! Their support continues to make a meaningful impact in our community.

For more information or to contribute, please contact Aspen High School Athletics. Let’s come together to honor our past and build a bright future for Aspen High School Athletics!

Six Aspen High School Students recently brought home eight awards - including four Gold Key awards - for their artwork presented in the regional contest of the prestigious national Scholastic Art & Writing Awards program.

The regional contest, the Colorado Art Region of Scholastic Art and Writing, draws more than 5,000 pieces of artwork into the contest, which is open to students in grades 7-12. It is the nation’s longest-running and most prestigious recognition program for creative teens in grades 7–12, ages 13+ and has been a program in Colorado since 1947.

“I think it’s incredible to get recognition as an artist within the community, and I am very appreciative of that!” said Evie Dziedzic Szostak, AHS student who won two awards last year and two this year. “I have had amazing experiences working on art at the high school and have been consistently encouraged to try new things, expanding my skill set and enjoyment of creating.”

Judges, who are industry leaders in the visual arts, look for work that exemplifies originality, technical skill, and the emergence of a personal voice or vision. The awards are: Gold Key, Silver Key, Honorable Mentions, and American Visions & Voices. The Gold Key winners’ work will advance to the national competition. National awards are expected to be announced in March.

“I’m so incredibly proud of all of my students but right now I’m especially proud of the students who entered their work to Scholastics and received recognition,” said AHS Art Teacher Julie Trahon.

Aspen High School Student winners are:

• Elizabeth Foster, junior, won a Gold Key award in the Painting category for work titled “Piscis Forum.”

• Gia Galindo-Bartley, senior, won a Gold Key in the Photography category  for work titled “LOCK IN!” She also won an Honorable Mention in the Mixed Media category titled “The Pool.”
