Week of 2/28/26

A very special thank you to the families who provided examples of food, dress and knowledge of all the wonderful countries that make up part of the Quest Family!
A Little Note Goes a Long Way!
We are looking for your help to spread some encouragement during CMAS testing! We are asking families to handwrite a short note of encouragement, inspiration, or pride to our 3rd through 8th grade students as they tackle their CMAS assessments.
Here's the fun part: you won't be writing to your own child! All letters will be collected and randomly distributed to testing classrooms, so every student has a chance to receive a warm, heartfelt message from someone in our school community.
Your note doesn't have to be long, just a few sentences reminding a kid that they are capable, prepared, and amazing. Think things like "You've got this!", "We are so proud of you!", or "Believe in yourself, you are smarter than you know!" And feel free to write more than one, because the more notes we have, the more students we can reach!
Please drop off your handwritten note (or notes!) to the front office by March 27th. Every student deserves to feel supported, and your words just might make all the difference on test day.
Thank you for helping us lift our students up!
Ramadan Mubarak
"Dear Quest Community. As the holy month of Ramadan approaches (February 17, through March 19, 2026), we want to wish our Muslim families a peaceful and blessed month. In support of those who are fasting, our Nutrition Services Department offers our students a “Grab & Go” bag of food at the end of each school day. Please, put your name on the roster at the front desk in advance so the kitchen can plan accordingly. “Ramadan Mubarak to all who are celebrating!"
Who’s Interested?
Our PTA Board is coming up on the end of our two year term and are needing replacements. Have you wondered how you can impact the school? Have you enjoyed the community that’s being created and want to invest in it’s growth? Please reach out and ask about our positions and see if one is a good fit for you!
King Soopers Rewards: (Easiest way to passively fundraise without trying!) ****We voted to use our last quarter earnings to fund three different experiences for Winter Fest so stay tuned!!!!!! Every household subscribed helps our BIG time!
Help our school by buying your groceries. This last quarter we earned $1165.23 from families buying groceries! We used that money for Winter Fest festivities without even touching the budget! It is the easiest fundraiser and takes less than 10 minutes to set up. Set your neighbor up, grandma, dentist, whomever you have a relationship with.
A huge thank you to our current participants!! 188 families are currently contributing money towards our school line items from our budget.
