Dear ORE Families, 

Thank you for a wonderful start to the year! 

It is SO good to see our students and families back on campus. Our students are settling in nicely to the routines, and they have impressed us with their hard work. It has been a pleasure getting to know our new students as well as seeing how much our returning students have grown. Students are already eagerly earning Caught in the ACT cards for being respectful, trustworthy, caring, and responsible. We are so proud of our students. 

Teachers and staff have worked hard over the last couple of weeks setting expectations in their classrooms, establishing routines to make students successful, and building relationships that will hopefully last long beyond this year. All of these components are crucial to establishing a healthy classroom. 

We will be starting after school clubs in the next few weeks. Information went out to parents last week, via email. If you missed the email, please see club info in the flyer section below. Teacher Sponsored Club flyers will come home Monday, August 7.

We look forward to a great year celebrating all of the wonderful things your child accomplishes. Our staff are incredibly talented, care deeply for your children and value your partnership. If at any time you have a question or concern, please don’t hesitate to reach out to your child’s teacher or our front office. We are here to help and partner with you. 

We hope to see you at our August events, highlighted below. 

Cheers to a great year!

Mrs. Robold



Attendance Info

Every absence has an impact on student learning. Students who attend school regularly and on time, do better! So far our students are off to a great start! 

To promote good attendance, we will be holding various incentives throughout the year that students can earn if they are at school, on time, at least 95% of the time. Please stay tuned to the monthly newsletters to see what exciting things we are implementing to reward students!

***If you, or someone you know, owns or operates a business that would be willing to provide incentives or donations toward incentives for students, please contact our Volunteer Coordinator/Office Clerk, Adriana Olson, via email at olsonad@vailschooldistrict.org or via phone call at 520-879-3619.

We also recognize the importance of keeping your child at home if they are ill and encourage you to do so. If your child has a fever, is vomiting or has diarrhea, they must remain at home until they are fever/vomit/diarrhea free, without medication, for 24 hours. To report an absence, please call our attendance line at 520-879-3603. 

Parking Lot

Thank you for your help in pulling forward as far as possible in the pick up and drop off lanes each day and for utilizing the staff managed crosswalks when crossing the parking lot to support traffic flow. If you hop the curb to park, please check your surroundings before leaving your car to make sure you aren’t blocking in another car or impeding traffic flow. We appreciate everyone’s help to ensure a smooth and safe arrival and dismissal process.

Health Office Info

It's that time of year again. We will be doing our annual hearing and vision screenings in the health office. If you would like your child to opt out, please email Ashley Degnan in our Health office at degnana@vailschooldistrict.org and she will remove your child from the list. Thank you!
