No Flyers this Week
WELCOME BACK! We are excited to begin the second semester with your students!
Attendance Line:
If your child will be absent from school, arriving late, or leaving early please call the attendance line and leave a message at 303-387-8527. Thank you!
Yearbook Photos:
Calling all parents! Please send in any photos you may have to classroom teachers for yearbook. Several teachers still do not have a parent yearbook volunteer. If you are willing to volunteer as a yearbook parent volunteer, please reach out to your teacher.
Raptor for Safety:
Everyone who is visiting classrooms, joining kids for lunch, or attending a meeting or an event will have their ID/driver’s license scanned. The ONLY database that the Raptor system checks IDs against is the sexual predator database. This system does NOT check any other databases.
All DCSD schools will be using this same system very soon. Once you have scanned your ID at any school location, you will be saved in the system. Therefore, if you forget your ID in your car, DCSD schools that are utilizing Raptor will be able to look you up by your name.
All guests will be given a sticker to wear while they are in our school that is printed by this system. This sticker will have your name, the photo from your ID, and the date and time. For our frequent guests, we will try to save printing costs by placing your Raptor ID in a protective badge sleeve so you can reuse the sticker throughout the year.
Each new school year (in August) we will rescan all IDs for the current school year
This system will be in place beginning Monday, January 14, 2019. Please remember to bring your ID with you so we can scan it and get you logged into our system. If you have any questions, please reach out to the office and we’ll work to find an answer for you. Thank you for your partnership in keeping our students and staff safe!
Late Orders for Original Works are expected mid January. Don’t worry, there’s Valentine’s Day, Easter, Birthdays, and the just because you’re awesome days ahead to give your purchases as gifts.
Google Doodle Contest: Students have a chance to win a $30,000 college scholarship and a $50,000 Technology Grant for Iron Horse. A link to contest web page for contest rules and details can be found on my web page under January 7th, 2019 on my calendar or by clicking here: https://doodles.google.com/d4g/
Winter Family Art Night: I would love to have you join me in the art room to create wonderful family memories while creating something you can use for years to come. We’ll be making a Japanese Stab Binding Book that can be used as a gratitude journal, a “family moments” journal, or a gift for a loved one. There will be two different two day sessions, from 5pm to 7pm. You may not need the whole time each day but I wanted to give people time each day to work around work schedules if needed. The first day will include glueing any photographs and decorative papers you’d like to glue on the front and the second day will be putting it all together after the glue has dried. If you’d like to bring any images you’d like to permanently attach to the book, feel free to do so. The Cost will be $15 per item to cover costs for the art supplies. The deadline to sign up is Monday, January 14th. Please go to My School Bucks below to sign up.
