Good Afternoon Parents/Guardians:

We had a great Super Bowl spirit day here today. I posed as Bronco Man, I was inspired by a sixth grader this year who I have dubbed Bronco Boy. We had a blast today. The students wore their spirit wear…mainly Broncos, however there were a few Sea Hawks Jersey’s. More importantly the money we raised went to help throw Super Bowl parties at four different assisted living centers. The parties were held yesterday and today. The people in the assisted living centers were extremely grateful and appreciative of us for thinking of them. I need to thank my secretary Denise as it was her idea to hold the parties and she orchestrated the logistics of throwing the parties. 

I also need to thank Mrs. Gardner and Denise both for providing the attire that I wore today. We also had about $130.00 left over after funding the parties at the assisted living centers that will go into our PBIS account. Mrs. Gardner is the chairperson for that committee and the money will go right back into recognition of students. Regardless of the outcome of the Super Bowl, we had a lot of fun and were able to bring some joy to people in our community. A big thanks to all of the students and teachers who donated money. Once we have the releases from the assisted living centers we will post some pictures on our website.

It is that time of the year for high school registration. I received information regarding registration for Arapahoe High School today. Iwill attach one page from their registration packet that is importantinformation for you. We will also have a link on the front page of our website for additional information and resources. As we receive information from Littleton or Heritage we will also make that information available.

Just a reminder that today is the last day for eighth grade parents to submit their baby ads for the yearbook this fall. If you are interested and have not checked off this task, the instructions are on the front page of our website.

Have a great weekend.

Respectfully,

James O’Tremba
