Coyote Ridge and St. Paul Primary School formed a partnership in 2009. Since then, the two schools have enjoyed learning about each other through cross-cultural exchange activities, art projects, and live video school events. The Coyote Ridge community participates in activities and learning opportunities that foster a global understanding and a deepened worldview while building friendships abroad.

Join us for this year’s Mwebaza Day!
Mwebaza Days are integral to our mission of inspiring global citizenship.
“Mwebaza Day” refers to in-school, cultural celebrations that we host with our Colorado and Uganda partner schools! These special days invite each school community to connect with one of the Mwebaza partner schools on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean, through a live video chat.
Mwebaza Day promotes cross-cultural understanding, global awareness, and meaningful connections by inviting students to share culturally relevant dances and songs and to engage in a Q&A.
Stay tuned for your school’s official date for Mwebaza Day 2026 and the virtual link to join the video chat!
