Weld County School District RE-1
Weld County School District RE-1 is a school district headquartered in Gilcrest, Colorado. As of 2019 the district had 1,990 students. The district also serves LaSalle and Platteville.[1]
In 2012 the district began utilizing EAGLE-Net Alliance, a broadband internet cooperative involving several local governments in the state that is intended to increase the proliferation of broadband internet. One member of the group's board of directors, Jo Barbie, served as the WCSD RE-1 superintendent.[2]
In the 2012–2013 school year the district began holding classes only four days per week instead of five and therefore the district spent 1.7% less of its original budget, meaning it spent $360,000 fewer dollars. Don Rangel became the superintendent in 2015.[3]
