Dear Lesher Families,

Fall season is in full swing and our programs had another strong week.

Boys XC placed 2nd at the Lincoln Invitational and the girls finished 3rd. Volleyball split results—win over Webber and a tough three-set battle vs. Lincoln. Boys Soccer opened with a dominant win over Wellington. Football shut out Boltz for a second straight victory. Boys and Girls Tennis each beat Lincoln and fell to Kinard. Proud of the way our athletes (and you) are competing and representing Lesher.

Hello 7th and 8th grade Lesher Students!

It’s time to apply for National Junior Honor Society-- also called NJHS. If you were already accepted into this last year, you don’t need to reapply-- you’re automatically in.

It is considered a great honor to be accepted into NJHS, and it is a recognition that many people notice if it is on your resume when you apply for future organizations and jobs.

NJHS runs a great deal of service activities at Lesher such as collecting food for the local food bank, creating cards and decorations for local nursing homes, setting up the Adopt-a-Family holiday gift drive, hosting staff appreciation events, taking part in Lesher’s campus clean-up days, and much more!

To apply to join this wonderful organization, check out the link posted below. The application is open to only 7th and 8th graders who were on the gold or blue honor roll at the end of last year and are willing to participate in our quarterly meetings and at least one NJHS service project. The deadline to apply is Friday, September 19. For more information, talk to Mr. T, or Mr. Warchola.

Does your child play a fall sport or participate in an activity outside of school? We are beginning to compile an 8th grade video slideshow for the end-of-the-year celebration, which tries to feature every student as well as every school sport/club. Help make this year’s video amazing by submitting short ACTION VIDEOS (2-8 seconds long) to Ms. Thompson at juliat@psdschools.org ! You can also reach out to her with any questions about the slideshow. More details about the video montage in a few months!

The Fort Collins High School Cheerleading team is excited to have our Winter Cheer Mini Clinic on Saturday, September 20, 2025! The clinic is open to all students in grades Pre-K to eighth grade.

In an effort to foster a culture of mutual respect, effective communication, and quality customer service, PSD has created a set of norms for staff, family/guardian, and community engagement. These norms aim to set a positive tone for interactions between staff and parents and community members, whether they happen in person, over the phone, or in writing.

The norms will be posted in all PSD schools and include expectations that:

• Calls or emails that are not emergencies will be acknowledged within three school days.

• Appointments between the parties involved will be established as a norm for addressing concerns or discussing important matters through direct communication.

• Appointments will take place as soon as reasonably possible. Adequate time is needed for preparation and research before an appointment.

• Communication will focus on collaboration and understanding – respectful language and non-confrontational behavior from all parties are expected.

• Boundaries between personal and professional life will be maintained, and sensitive matters will not be addressed in community settings.

It’s important for everyone in our schools and in our communities to feel welcome and engage in mutual respect to best serve students.
