NSCW - 2025 Event - january 25 - great wolf lodge
Parents Challenge partners with National School Choice Week every year to host a school fair to promote the variety of school options in Colorado Springs. Our annual event took place on January 27, 2024 at the Great Wolf Lodge, with over 70 vendors and 1000 people in attendance. Families were offered resources from private, public, charter and home school options as well as organizations and companies. The families also enjoyed activities, prizes and entertainment.
