We just completed our 9th week of school! As you can see from our newsletters, we are very busy with numerous activities and events. We are proud of our staff and students and greatly appreciate the support we receive from parents and community.

We also appreciate the efforts everyone has made in helping mitigate illness in the school. This has allowed us to provide a great learning environment for students. As we start to head into the traditional illness seasons, we can't stress enough the importance of continuing to be diligent in conducting symptom checks at home in the morning and NOT sending students to school when sick. Please know that we continue to deep clean the building and encourage healthy practices here at school.

1. Be humble and hungry.

2. Focus on your strengths and what matters most.

3. Tune out distractions.

4. See life and people as teachers you can learn from each day.

5. Help others get better.

6. Care more. Put more time effort, and passion into your work and life.

On Wednesday, October 13th, Ag II Students competed in the Colorado State Range Judging Contest. As a beginner team, Akron was 10th out of 20 teams, with a total score of 758 points.

The top individual placer for the Akron team was Vashti Winter, who finished 7th out of 119 participants.

The Akron 3rd graders were treated to a cultural celebration day facilitated by Jessica Filla. Students sampled some traditional Puerto Rican food and learned the salsa.
