Every day counts when it comes to learning! Consistent attendance helps students build strong routines, stay connected with their classmates, and keep up with important lessons. Please make sure your child arrives on time each morning and stays for the full day whenever possible.
If your child will be absent, remember to call or email the attendance office at 303-702-8040 or [email protected] to let us know the reason and length of absence. Together, we can help every student succeed one day at a time!
We have been having unseasonably warm weather but the cold is just around the corner. Please make sure your students are dressed appropriately for the sudden changes of warm to cold that happen in the fall. For those who are new, and a reminder to our community, we have included our weather policy which is in our Highlands Parent Code of Conduct.
“Recess is an integral part of the school day and all students will be expected to participate. Students should wear clothing and shoes appropriate for outside play. Students can be excused from recess with a doctor’s note.
Children will go outside for recess unless there is excessive precipitation, lightning or if the temperature falls below 15 degrees (temperature + wind chill)”
As we move into the fall and winter months, we encourage all families to periodically review our inclement weather protocols and shortened day schedules on the district website .
Student Fees & Payments
You can pay school fees through either Revtrak or Infinite Campus.
- Revtrak: For field trips, class shirts, and special classroom supplies (like music recorders).
- Infinite Campus: For materials fees, iPad insurance, and preschool tuition.
