From Head of School

Lacey Scadden

Another week has gone by and we have started our count down to Thanksgiving break! This is a pivotal time in our semester where we are increasing the rigor and expectations for our students as we wrap up the semester. Please be sure to check IC to monitor grades.

We are closely watching the COVID cases rise in Larimer County. As a response, we have been reinforcing our best practices of washing/sanitizing hands, social distancing and proper mask wearing. Our staff and students are doing really well at follow protocols which is allowing us to remain open. As long as we are following these procedures, we have the best chance of staying open. Please keep open communication with us if your family is being tested and stay home while awaiting those results. If one of our students tests positive we will close for a 4 day assessment and the Larimer County Health Department will issue any quarantine orders. We are so glad to keep school open and safe for everyone, thank you for doing your part.

Backpack: Supplemental Food for Weekends

Launched by Feeding America in 1995, the Backpack program is administered through the Food Bank and provides children in need with a weekend food pack filled with nutritious, non-perishable items. Schools refer children in need to the program. Each bag consists of at least one main meal per day, breakfast items, peanut butter, milk and snacks to get the children through the weekend. Items are easy to open, heat and consume, even for a small child. To participate in this program please email the number of children in your household to marika.lefevre@coloradoearlycolleges.org
