Steele Notes

Please join us for the first School Accountability Committee (SAC) meeting of the year on Tuesday, September 15 from 5-6pm in the Steele library. We'll give an overview of the role SAC plays and discuss Steele's big-picture goals for the year. We always love to see new faces, so please join us if you can! Contact SAC chair Kim Roberson with any questions-- kimroberson4@gmail.com.

September 25 is going to be a fun day as we celebrate the kind and giving spirit of Dolly Parton with our "Cup of Ambition" fundraiser. We are going to learn more about her amazing life and music and work to support our local El Paso County Imagination Library. Dolly relied on community members to keep the funding strong and now we need to do our part to give back to the community. Please stay tuned in the next week for more details.
