September Newsletter

Warm Welcome to Our Families!
We are so grateful to be starting this new school year together with you! September is always an exciting month—students are settling into routines, making connections with their teachers and peers, and diving into new learning opportunities. It’s been wonderful to see the joy, growth, and curiosity already happening in our classrooms.
At Main Street, we value the strong partnership between school and home. Your support, encouragement, and collaboration make a huge difference in your child’s success, and we are thankful to walk alongside you this year.
As we move through September, we look forward to celebrating the small and big wins with our students, continuing to build a positive school community, and making sure every child feels safe, supported, and inspired to learn.
Thank you for being part of the Main Street family—we couldn’t do this work without you!
Warmly,
Main Street Administration Team

Tips to Stay Healthy
As we start back to school, here are a few reminders to help your students stay healthy:
How Sick Is Too Sick?
There are four main reasons for children and adults to stay home:
- The child or staff member could infect others with a contagious illness, either because of symptoms, a diagnosis, or recent exposure to a contagious illness.
- The child or staff member does not feel well enough to take part in usual activities. For example, a child is overly tired, fussy, or will not stop crying.
- A child needs more care than teachers and staff can give while still caring for the other children.
- The child or staff member has symptoms or an illness on this list, and staying home is required.

Nutrition Services
The St. Vrain Valley School District’s Department of Nutrition Services provides quality, nutritious and well balanced meals to the District’s students. The Department strives to provide meals at a reasonable price and to make sure that all meals meet the National School Breakfast and Lunch nutritional guidelines providing a 1/4 of the RDA (recommended dietary guidelines) at breakfast and 1/3 of the RDA’S at lunch for students. In addition to the Department’s goal of providing healthy meals for students, the Department works to be an efficient, self-supporting enterprise program within the District. Please fill out the online form at your earliest convenience.
Reminder: Late Start 1st Wednesday of the Month
St. Vrain Valley School District uses Professional Learning Comunnity (PLC) Days for late starts, typically on the first Wednesday of each month except October and January, and delays the start by 2.5 hours for weather-related events.
Late start days are used for teacher professional development, and a 2025-2026 School Calendar PDF is available on the district's website (or click on link at bottom of page) to view specific dates and times for these events.
