The purpose of this post is to ensure all Bear Valley families and students are prepared to start the 22-23 school year! Please take some time to read the below sections to answer all your questions!
If you still have additional questions please call 720-423-9600 or email bvoffice@dpsk12.org and one of our YETITASTIC front office ladies will be happy to assist.
If you are reviewing this communication but your child will not be attending BVIS this year please call or email us with name and location of the forwarding school so that we can provide them transcripts and confirm enrollment. We cannot remove you from our rosters until we have confirmed enrollment with this new school. If you have a DPS issued computer and you are moving out of district and/or going to a charter like DSST or Strive you must bring back the CB that was provided to your scholar.
Online registration re-opened on July 25th through Parent Portal and is the preferred method to complete your child’s registration. If you complete the registration online you would only need to come to the school to purchase Spirit Swag t-shirts and/or pick up paper copies of all the documents provided in this website post.
Online registration is completed by signing into Parent Portal. If you do not have a Parent Portal account, you can create one here. After you sign in to Parent Portal, click on “See All Apps,” then click on “Online Registration” (towards the bottom of the list of apps) to complete the process. Online registration can only be completed by the parent/guardian listed in the primary household of the student record.
Click below for step-by-step directions to support completing this online registration:
If you are unable to complete the online registration please choose the day and time that works best for your family. Students are welcome to join but it isn’t required. The entire process should take less than 30 minutes. Please park on the surrounding streets and enter through our main entrance along South Golden Way.
Registration fees will be waived for the 22-23 school year to allow families to support Spirit Swag purchases.

BVIS has a unique school calendar that is slightly different from the DPS Calendar. Please click HERE to view our calendar. We start a bit earlier than other DPS schools, however our last day of school is 5/26/23!
Each grades 1st day of school will be a FULL day and will be focused on building culture and ensuring all staff and students have time to ease into this new school year. This includes building tours, locker practice, and taking purposeful time to start building relationships.
**Families will be contacted by our Safety & Security Officer if their child(ren) have been found to be on campus after 2:40pm so that we can brainstorm supports to ensure their after-school safety.
This map will guide you on where to drop-off your child based on their grade as well as which doors they will enter.

BVIS along with families and students participating in activities, services and programs funded by Title I, Part A of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA), agree that this Compact outlines how the BVIS community members will share responsibility for student success, and the means by which the school and families will build and develop a partnership to ensure all children achieve the state’s standards.
Please click below to review the shared School, Staff, Family and Student responsibilities for said compact.
All yellow bus requests or questions must go through DPS Transportation. Please click below for their 22-23 flyer, or call 720-423-4600 for assistance. Please note that DPS Transportation does not provide routing information to schools so you must call them directly to see if they have a stop near your house.
If you have updated copies of immunization records please bring them to walk -in registration. Or you can email a copy to bvoffice@dpsk12.org. If your child’s records are incomplete please expect a follow up from our school Nurse in late August.
