Rowdy the Roadrunner visits North Middle School HEalth Sciences and Technology Campus

On Monday, February 8th, Rowdy the Roadrunner, the official mascot of Metropolitan State College of Denver (MSCD), visited North Middle School Health
Sciences and Technology Campus students during lunch, accompanied by Mr. Ron Christian, the Assistant Athletic Director at MSCD. Mr. Christian spoke to students about Metro and the colleges on the Auraria Campus in downtown Denver, and the benefits of attending Metro State, including strong, championship athletic programs and 86 different college majors. North students had a great time with Rowdy who gave away many fun prizes, including free tickets to see a Roadrunner’s Men’s Basketball game for all students at North!

Rowdy’s visit was one of many activities at North during “College Week,” a week dedicated to celebrating and reinforcing our vision in Aurora Public Schools (APS)that, “We will graduate every student with the choice to attend college without remediation.”

College Week culminates with student-led, parent-teacher conferences and College Night on Wednesday, February 10th from 4:00 until 7:30 p.m. Many colleges, universities, LIGHTS APS feeder high schools, and more will be represented that evening. All parents and students of all grade levels are invited to attend. We hope to see you there!
