ining and ranching history. The rural economy is tied to local skiing and resorts, but has also become an attractive place for sustainable businesses. The tourist area has attracted new families with varied cultural backgrounds as well as many second homeowners. Employment opportunities for parents of RFHS students often center around the local hospitality, service, and construction industries, and incomes vary widely. ACADEMIC PROGRAM Roaring Fork High School uses a rotating block schedule with four blocks per day. Students are full-time if they are enrolled in six classes. 9th and 10th graders need to carry seven or eight classes; 11th and 12th graders generally take six or seven classes. In 2025-26, students are scheduled in a 40-minute Crew (advisory) period twice a week, and a 40-minute study hall/learning lab, which is required for all students. Refer to the list of 2025-2026 courses. Capstone Project All seniors must complete a capstone project to graduate. This is a student-driven project, product, or performance that allows for the exploration of a passion or curiosity and prepares students for further work or study. The learning and reflection required by a capstone are documented via journals, blog posts, or other artifacts and, upon completion, are presented in a meaningful way. Read more about Capstones on the RFSD website.  Seal of Biliteracy Roaring Fork High School awards the Colorado State Seal of Biliteracy to students who demonstrate proficiency in a language in addition to English.
