Sports and clubs
Pine Creek offers a diverse collection of sports and clubs for student participation. The school allows its students to design their own clubs (with the approval of a few teachers and administrators) if they are not satisfied with current clubs. The school has seen many victories in various athletics over the few years it has existed, including state qualifying teams in football, hockey, track and field, cross country, soccer, basketball, Marching Band, volleyball, and swimming both men and women. Overall, Pine Creek has been awarded by the Halen Foundation its most prestigious award, The Colorado Superior High School Award for the 2007-2008 school year. Michael Arsenault recently won a $25,000 award for an outstanding demonstration as both a teacher and a student supporter. [1]
