When the call went out in 2024 asking the community to help fund a memorial for Kendrick Castillo, the response was immediate — and overwhelming. Within just a few days, the $30,000 goal was fully funded.
On May 7, 2019, Kendrick Castillo, a senior at STEM School Highlands Ranch, gave his life to protect his classmates during a school shooting. His act of heroism forever changed our community and reminded the world of the strength found in courage, kindness, and faith — even in the darkest moments.
You’re invited to join us for the unveiling of the Kendrick Castillo Memorial Monument at 10 a.m. on Friday, Nov. 14, at Civic Green Park in Highlands Ranch.
