COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., Jan. 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The Great Wolf Lodge will transform into a hub of educational opportunity as Parents Challenge hosts its annual Colorado Springs School Fair. The event, which has become a cornerstone of the community's school choice celebrations, will welcome more than 1,000 parents and students exploring Colorado's diverse education landscape.

All are welcome at the fair, which takes place on Saturday, January 25, from 10:00 a.m to 2:00 p.m., featuring representatives from traditional public schools, charter public schools, private schools, online academies, homeschool groups, and curriculum providers. Families can explore the full spectrum of K-12 education options along with pre-K, collegiate and supporting organizations all available in the Pikes Peak region, all under one roof.

While parents connect with educators and explore schooling options, children can enjoy an array of free activities including face painting, photo opportunities, balloon art, and complimentary refreshments. The family-friendly atmosphere ensures an engaging experience for attendees of all ages.

"Our goal is to empower families by equipping them with the resources and knowledge to make informed decisions about their children's education," said Deborah Hendrix, Executive Director of Parents Challenge.
