Free Meals
Starting this week, all students will receive FREE meals, both in the cafeteria and grab & go for eLearning and Remote Learning!

This will continue through December, or until all funds are exhausted.

We are asking that families still fill out applications for free or reduced lunch (in the Infinite Campus Parent Portal) to continue to receive free meals in the event the funds are exhausted. Thank you!
Health Screening App
To expedite the screening process at schools, Englewood Schools is offering a Health Screening App that families will use to screen students at home before they come to school. The app is available through the rSchoolToday activities app (with a hat icon.)

The video below explains how to use the app.
eLearning Meals Survey
Laptop
Grab & Go meals are available for eLearners. Englewood Schools' Nutrition Services Department wants to make sure we are making meals easy & convenient for eLearning families to access. Please take a moment to fill out this survey so we can be sure we are meeting your needs.
Get a Library Card
Englewood Public Library is offering families an opportunity to come to the library and get a library card on Saturdays! After receiving the card, families will be able to reserve books and other resources online from home, and then get them with curbside pickup! Don't miss out on all that the library has to offer!
Parenting in a Pandemic
Because of the pandemic, many families are spending more time at home together. These five daily questions can spark ideas for reducing stress and building family connections.
Student Art Contest for 2021 Calendar
Each year the City of Englewood produces a calendar that showcases artwork created by young students who live or go to school in Englewood. The City is now seeking entries for the 2021 Calendar. The Student Art Contest is open to Englewood students from Kindergarten through 12th Grade - public, private, and home-schooled. The total number of entries will be narrowed down to 50 finalists and those students whose artwork is included in the calendar will receive recognition by City Council. 

Deadline for entries is Friday, September 18, 2020

Due to COVID-19 the City understands that not all applicants will be able to physically submit their artwork. Applicants have the option to bring their artwork to the City Center or email a high resolution image to mhinkfuss@englewoodco.gov. Artwork will be judged online.
