DONUT MISS COUNT DAY, MONDAY, OCTOBER 3RD!
To celebrate in the morning, we will have donuts for all students that are on campus and on time for their classes. In the afternoon, we will have cookies for students that have attended their classes.
**Students should attend ALL of their classes that day.
Every school year we are required by the Colorado Department of Education to report our enrollment numbers. This is done by attendance verification. The attendance verification window is from September 26 through October 11, with October 3 being the official Count Day.
We ask that students be in attendance during this attendance window, and we request that all on campus students be present for each assigned class and all online students are active in their online class during the class time. Due to the importance of Count Day on 10/3, please do NOT have appointments or early pickup be conducted on that date which would remove the student from the classroom.
Bottom line, October Count provides CECDC the funding for your student to receive the $4200 voucher to pursue college goals, hire and retain quality instructors, and deliver top-notch programming! October Count is crucial to the continued success of CECDC to provide you and your family this wonderful opportunity.
We kindly request your support during Count Day. If you have questions regarding this event, please contact the school for additional information.

Hello students and parents/guardians,
The advising team from CECCR wanted to share a reminder that we have advising for the spring semester coming up very soon. The Advising meeting is an important component of the Colorado Early Colleges model as the time helps to ensure your student is on track for graduation and working towards appropriate post-secondary goals. During this time, we meet with every student and at least 1 parent/guardian to complete the Individual Career and Academic Plan.
Important details:
-
Each student MUST have an advising meeting to receive a class schedule for the following semester.
-
Each student MUST have at least 1 parent/guardian present for the advising meeting.
Some of the points that will be covered during advising meetings are, but not limited to:
- Current semester productivity
- Acknowledge success and challenges
- Review supports
- Create a class schedule for following semester
- Review plans and goals for after high school / Get to know the student (interests, hobbies, etc.)
Advising season will start in the middle of October. Specific dates will be out in the next week or two, with the link to schedule an appointment.
Advising Team:
- Mr. Pablo Correa: A – Ed
- Mrs. April Kauffman: Eg – O'

Roadtrip Nation: Colorado
October 16 - Deadline to Apply
This upcoming spring, fueled by the Daniels Fund, Wend Collective, and Strada Education Network, we’re helping a team of young people explore career opportunities in Colorado...for free! If you’re especially hoping to find a career in health care, the skilled trades, STEM, agriculture, or natural resources and energy, we’re looking for you! We want to give you a hands-on look at how people like you are using their talents and interests to find fulfilling and meaningful careers right in your home state.
Application Details:
- All travel expenses, plus a daily stipend for personal expenses, are paid for by Roadtrip Nation.
- This trip is currently scheduled for late spring 2023, but the timing may shift as we continue to monitor the situation with COVID-19. We'll work with applicants and communicate about timing as we learn more.
- We want to share your journey with others, so the road trip will be filmed. The resulting documentary may be shown on public television, as well as other relevant video platforms.
- Individuals who are chosen will help plan the trip around their specific interests, areas of study, and career aspirations, so you’ll be working with Roadtrip Nation to research and book interviews with the career role models you’d like to speak with.
