We’ve made it to Fall Break, and what a journey it’s been so far!
The first part of the school year has been filled with growth, learning, creativity, and fun.. Whether it was navigating new routines, diving into challenging material, or cheering on our students as they explored their talents in the classroom, on the stage, or on the field, we’ve seen incredible progress and spirit from our middle schoolers.
This break is well-deserved for students, families and educators. We hope you take this time to relax, have fun with your families, and enjoy the Fall weather. Encourage your children to reflect on how far they’ve come already and remind them that every step forward, no matter how small, is worth celebrating.
We’re so proud of all the hard work our students (and YOU, their biggest supporters!) have put in. Thank you for partnering with us on this journey. We look forward to coming back energized and ready for an even stronger second quarter.
Wishing you a joyful and restful Fall Break!

Transportation is required by CDE Regulations to account for all students on the bus and unauthorized passengers are not permitted. However, the Transportation Department recognizes that circumstances may arise, e.g. a family emergency, parents out of town, etc., when a student needs to ride home with another student on a one-time only basis. The student must get off at the assigned stop of the student they are riding with (no exceptions).
Make sure to fill out and turn in the linked Permission Slip to the Campus Admins office no later than 9:00 AM on the requested ride date. Forms can be printed and handed to the Campus Admins Assistant. Hard copies of the form can be picked up from the Campus Admins office if they are needed but must be picked up prior to the day they need to ride a different bus. No emails will be accepted. If there is an emergency, please call the Campus Admins office at 720-554-5155.
