Return to In-Person Learning Update
We continue to monitor Arapahoe County COVID-19 data closely so we will know when it is safe to resume in-person learning.

Unfortunately, we have not yet seen the data begin to trend in the right direction. The spread of COVID-19 in our community is not slowing or getting under control. This means that we plan to continue Rolling Remote learning through Friday, November 20 unless there is a quick and dramatic shift in the data starting tomorrow. The data need to be showing green or yellow for a sustained period before we can return to school. Please remember, there is no school November 23-27 due to Thanksgiving break. 

We all want to be back together to learn in-person. We will continue to watch the data and hope that the spread slows so that we can return to in-person as soon as possible.

We will continue to provide updates on the data and how it affects our plans to return to in-person learning weekly on Thursdays.

Until then, please utilize the resources we have available for families and continue to follow health guidelines and do your part to slow the spread.
Request to Change Learning Platforms
Students in grades PreK through 12 have the opportunity to switch from in-person learning to eLearning or vice versa for spring semester. In order to do so, parents will need to fill out one form for each child by Monday, November 9.
reSOLVE for Families from Mindspark

Mindspark recognizes that some parents and families need support in navigating at-home and virtual learning in a way that allows them to support their children’s development and, as best as possible, maintain their own work and personal commitments.
 
With reSOLVE for Families, Colorado participants will walk away feeling more equipped and confident in their ability to support remote learning, not more overwhelmed or like "another thing was added to my plate.”

reSOLVE offers a combination of live and on-demand sessions for families to gain strategies and practices related to family organization, social emotional health, and personalized learning in support of their child's education. Learn more on this website.

Upcoming Session

Date: Thursday, November 12, 2020
Time: 4:30 - 5:00 p.m.
Description: In this snippet, we will support and equip families with implementable strategies and practices related to family organization, social emotional health and personalized learning

Good News Stories
Zoom Guest at Colorado's Finest
Guest speaker Dr. John Cassano, Professor and Atmospheric and Climate Scientist joined students in Maggie's Arctic Expedition class at Colorado's Finest last week to share about his work during the MOSAiC Expedition earlier this year. Students were able to zoom with him and learn about the environmental trends that inspired his work, the specifics (and dangers...POLAR BEARS!) of his work and also ask questions to better understand the implications of climate change.
