Breakfast is served Monday-Friday from 7:20-7:35. The cut off time for breakfast is 7:30. Any student arriving after 7:30am will not be able to have breakfast due to not enough time to eat and possibly being late to class. Breakfast is FREE too!
Due to snacks being sold during lunchtime, the students are eating only the snacks (multiple snacks) and not finishing their lunch. Parents and Guardians have the power to put a limit on the amount and frequency of snacks your child eats. You can do this by going to the School Cafe.
Class Assignments for Next School Year
The next two months is the time when teachers begin thinking about next year’s class lists. A lot of time and thought goes into creating a balanced environment for all students. This process is very intentional, and we solicit information from many sources, including you. Current classroom teachers will collaborate with the principal, special education teacher, and AMP teachers to place students based on the educational needs of their students.
The following criteria are used when making the final decisions for placement:
Principal and/or teachers do not take parent requests for specific classroom teacher assignments.
Each classroom will be balanced with student achievement, gender, leadership, and behaviors.
Students who consistently demonstrate that they cannot get along socially will be separated.
The number of students in each classroom will be as equal as possible. New students will be evenly distributed among
classes as they enroll.
If you believe your child has specific learning or social needs, parent input will be considered. Please email Mr. Kolasa at Kevin.Kolasa@jeffco.k12.co.us.
Although parent requests will be taken into consideration for student placement, it does not guarantee placement of the student into a particular class or with a certain teacher. Final class placement of a student will be made by Mr. Kolasa.
We have a lot of items in the lost & found that would like to go home. Please stop by and check to see if any of these items belong to your child. Any items left over will be donated to the Jeffo Action Center.
Please review your fees and pay any outstanding amounts. Unpaid fees will convert to fines at the end of the school year and will stay on the student’s record to the next grade levels until paid, regardless to which Jeffco School you transfer. Please pay ASAP. Fifth grade students with any outstanding fees, will not be able to participate in the "End of the Year Party". If you would like to make partial payments, please call Mrs. Russell and she will be happy to arrange it with you.
Fees can be viewed and paid online via Infinite Campus. Fees may also be paid via cash, check or credit card in the office with Mrs. Russell (303-982-7860x5).
to apply for Free & Reduced meals. If you are struggling with a hardship or need assistance regarding outstanding fees, please complete the Student Benefit Application .
