Place Bridge Academy, a newcomer school in Denver's Cherry Creek neighborhood, said out of its 850 students, around 200 are new to the country.
The school held its first career day on Friday. It was organized in part by teacher Natalie Jacobs and included a variety of presenters, including law enforcement, artists, scientists, the announcer for the Denver Nuggets and Denver7. Denver7 was invited to speak to a 4th-grade Spanish-speaking classroom that included several new-to-the-country students, as well as a 7th-grade primarily English-speaking class.
Despite having to adjust to the influx of new students, Morrow said they've been happy to provide a welcoming environment for everyone.
