Post Travel Quarantine Lifted
Effective immediately, we are able to lift the post-travel quarantine period before returning to school. THANK YOU to all of our families who have been so diligent about this up until now. We think that the primary reason the school has been able to stay open all year is that families are not sending students into the building who are symptomatic. Yes, we have various mitigations set up to limit spread, but most importantly students who are feeling sick are staying home. That remains important during the pandemic conditions.

Diaper Drive – February 17th and March 31st
Did you know more than 67,000 children in Colorado each year need diapers their family cannot afford, but with COVID the need is much greater. The average baby uses eight to ten diapers a day. Each Lent, the seventh grade runs a diaper drive to support families in need. The sizes that are most in need this year are sizes four, five, and six. Our goal this year is to collect 12,000 diapers between February 17th and March 31st. To donate, simply send your child in with your diaper donation. Collection bins will be located and collected by the 7th grade for part of their service project this year.
