Widefield of Dreams ~ Danielle Thompson
Danielle Thompson is dancing her way into the holidays. The Mesa Ridge Grizzly just finished performing on stage at the Pikes Peak Center in The Nutcracker. This is Danielle’s seventh year in a row performing in The Nutcracker. This year she played an angel, though she has played several roles including her most favorite, the baker. In March, Danielle will be competing for a dance solo in an Artists Simply Human (ASH) production. Danielle started dancing in the fifth grade because she loved music, singing, and watching dance shows. In school, Danielle is a member of the The Pride of Mesa Ridge Marching Band and was recently the flute section leader. She is also in National Honor Society (NHS), Distributive Education Clubs of America (DECA), and Health Occupations Students of America (HOSA). Danielle wants to pursue dance and nursing when she goes to college. Her dream is to help those less fortunate, especially children, in the community.

Swearing In New Board of Education
The board also authorized the mill levy for the 2020 calendar year. We are excited to announce a decrease in tax assessment rates or mill levy for homeowners starting in the new year. In 2017, the district campaigned for the bond and mill levy override and projected that the tax increase would be $9.25 per $100,000 of assessed home value per month. For the tax year of 2020, that cost has decreased to $6.46 per month. The mills dropped from 60.294 to 56.396 which includes the Security Public Library and Widefield Parks and Recreation.
