Jeffco Remote Learning Program
We are pleased to announce the offering of a full-time, 100% remote option for families for the 2021-22 school year. Details for the Jeffco Remote Learning Program (JRLP) can be found on our website.
Enrollment for JRLP Opens March 2-26
Families interested in this option should go to Enroll Jeffco between March 2 - 26 and choose remote learning for their student. You will find instructions online and on Enroll Jeffco. Students who enroll in JRLP will still be considered a student at their school of choice.
If you have questions, contact your school. Charter schools may offer different programming; check with your school about remote learning options.
ChaKotaBine Drive
Columbine and other High School student government representatives will be hosting a ChakotaBine Drive. They will be collecting socks and toiletries to donate to Jeffco Action Center. The drive will run from March 1st through March 5th. We are asking elementary schools to bring in socks (they must be new, but could fit any size). Leawood’s Student Leadership will have bins outside during drop off and pick up to collect the socks. After the drive ends, Columbine High School students will pick up any donated supplies and deliver them to the Action Center. ChaKotaBine Drive FLYER

Mental Health Hub
When it comes to academics and mental health, healthy activities benefit the brain! Healthy activities can range from how we move our bodies, to how we learn and engage our minds, to the hobbies and habits we practice. Healthy activities are critical to the state of our physical, academic, and mental health. They can help us connect to others, give us a way to work through or cope with difficult emotions, or grow in confidence and sense of self. Find more resources on the Mental Health and Wellness Hub.
