Miss Boyd’s class went to Old Mill Park last Friday for Pioneer Days! The students got to step back in time to the 1860s and learn how settlers in the St. Vrain Valley lived, worked, and played. They got to play with tops and chalkboards, beat rugs, and even got to try out doing laundry!
Thank you!
We want to thank all the families who came by and extended well wishes, gratitude, gifts, flowers and delicious treats to our staff and teachers! We really are not a community without all our parents. Thank you to each and every one of you.
The end of the year is upon us and it’s time for our annual picnic. The picnic will be from 12:00-12:45 on 5/23 . Classes will go outside and sit at designated areas on the field. Students can bring a lunch from home or receive a hot lunch from the cafeteria. Parents are not required to attend but we would LOVE to have you if you can make it. Parents should pack in a lunch for themselves and any other siblings that might be joining.
Parents will have the option to check their student(s) out after the picnic. The picnic will conclude at 12:45 and the students who will be staying at school will head back inside. We will need to know if you will be taking your student(s) home, if they will be going home with another family or if they will be staying at school until 3:30. Please take the time to fill this form out so the office and teachers have correct attendance for the afternoon.
Thank you and if you have any questions you can contact the office or your student’s teacher.
