Congratulations to Juliana Montes and Galilea Nixcugtla for their successes in this year's Spanish Spelling Bee Competition

Global Village Academy North is proud to announce that Ksenia Appel-Whitney has been honored with the K-8 ACTR Excellence in Teaching Russian Award, a prestigious national recognition for her innovative teaching methods and dedication to language education. This award highlights her passion for inspiring young learners and fostering a deep appreciation for Russian language and culture.

Rowan Young Woelk's journey to bilingualism isn’t just about learning Mandarin—it’s about identity, culture, and connection. His award-winning essay earned him top honors and a $200 prize in the Annual CO-CABE Proud to Be Bilingual Essay Contest!

Welcome a bright, motivated student into your family for the 2025–2026 school year and create a lifelong bond while sharing cultures. No matter your household type—single parents, couples, empty nesters, or individuals—everyone is encouraged to apply as long as you’re open to making them feel at home.

We are incredibly proud to share that Nicole Wetzel, Head of School (GVA North) & Chief of Staff (GVAC), has been featured in Colorado Politics’ Opinion section! In her article, Nicole highlights how language immersion and academic achievement go hand in hand, sharing the remarkable success of GVA North students. She also reflects on Governor Jared Polis’ recognition of our school’s impact and the need to expand access to high-quality, innovative education across Colorado.
