Mrs. McElroy Message

We had another fantastic week of learning. The best part of my job is visiting classrooms and seeing all the students engaged and collaborating with one another. Student council candidates had been campaigning for the past two weeks. We announced the 2025-26 student council officers on Thursday. Students still have an opportunity to run for their class representative if they did not win an officer position. As we begin to shift into fall our mornings are becoming a little chilly, but it is still hot in the afternoon. Please make sure you are labeling your student’s hoodies and jackets. This is the time of year when our lost and found begins to grow.

Elementary Counseling and Social Emotional Learning (SEL) Needs Assessment

We value your input in helping us support your child’s social and emotional growth. Please take a few minutes to complete our Elementary Counseling and Social Emotional Learning (SEL) Needs Assessment. Your feedback will guide our programs and ensure we meet the needs of our students. Please complete the assessment by September 30th.

School Count is Coming

It’s official – October Count Day this year is Wednesday, October 1st. The most important action you can take to support school funding is to make sure your student attends school on this day. Much of public education funding from the State of Colorado is based on student count, so we encourage you to make sure your student comes to school that day.

The “count window” the state observes is from September 24 - October 8, but the most important student count day is Tuesday, October 1st. Help us get an accurate count by having your student participate in learning that day. Thank you for your support! Every student counts!

Have a wonderful week. Please reach out if you have any questions or concerns.

In Partnership,

Amie McElroy

Elementary Principal
