NEWS & UPCOMING EVENTS
Dear Cougar Families,
It is hard to believe that we are six weeks into this school year.
Here are a few things happening at EHS:
We have English students starting The Lincoln Highway.
We have Biology students visiting the lake for a Benthic Macroinvertebrate Biomonitoring investigation.
Choir is getting ready for their fall performance.
Rehearsals for the Fall Play are underway.
U.S. Government students are analyzing the complexity of wolf reintroduction in Colorado.
Our teachers organize outstanding avenues of exploration and inquiry. Critical thought, relevance and creativity are features of this learning.
With our shift into Fall, we move close to October Count.
Much of public education funding from the State of Colorado is based on student count, so we encourage you to make sure your student comes to school that day.
The “count window” the state observes is from Monday, September 25 through Monday, October 9, but the most important student count day is Monday, October 2. Help us get an accurate count by having your student participate in learning that day.
If your student will be absent on Monday, October 2 due to illness, please call our attendance line, 303-982-5041, to report the absence. Attendance during the “count window” will help counteract an absence on Monday, October 2.
Thank you for your support of Evergreen High School. Every student counts!
As we make our way through the year, we will continue to maintain our tradition of excellence while celebrating each student as an individual. This makes EHS an excellent school, an exceptional community and a model for extraordinary student culture.
Warm regards,
Dr. Skyler Artes, Principal
