Located in southeastern Colorado, at an elevation of 7,600 ft, Moffat School is no stranger to extreme winter weather. "It was 50 below for 60 straight days last winter," Kevin Neese, the school's director of maintenance and facilities, said. The K-12 public school, which has an enrollment of 150 students, was built during the early 1900s. Its gymnasium, which is used by local theatre groups, for town and government meetings, and for family reunions, was constructed during the 1960s.
