Good Afternoon Parents/Guardians and Students:

CONSTRUCTION UPDATE:

Beginning Tuesday, September 1st the right turn lane on Arapahoe Road that turns into our East parking lot on Albion will be coned off. On Wednesday the 2nd of September our East parking lot will be closed to all traffic. The water line for the new building will be tied into the main line that is located under Arapahoe Road. The East parking lot will be closed a minimum of one day and the right lane will be coned off until the 9th of September. To enter the parking lot on all days except the 2nd you will need to either enter from South Albion or make a left hand turn into the parking lot from West Arapahoe Road.

ACCOUNTABILITY COMMITTEE:

I am again looking for parents to serve on our building accountability committee. We will be meeting virtually this year until further notice. We will explore topics such as budget, our new building, have a virtual meeting with our Superintendent of schools and many other important school related agenda items. The meetings will be held at 4:00 pm on the following dates:

• September 17th
• October 22nd

Our meeting with Brian Ewert, Superintendent of Littleton Public Schools will be held on September 21st at 5:00 pm. This will also be a virtual meeting to discuss the budget and any related items.

If you are interested in serving on our committee please contact me.

STUDENT PICTURES:

Picture days will be held on Monday and Tuesday for A and B day students respectively. Packets were distributed to students this week at Newton. If you are interested in purchasing pictures please complete the packet and return with your student on their given picture day.

SIXTH GRADE SURVEY:

All sixth grade students will be taking a social/emotional survey next week. Please see the attached flyer regarding specific information regarding the survey.

We’ve had a very unusual, good start to the school year. We appreciate all of our parents' support, understanding and patience as we figure this unique school year out together.

Take care, be safe and have a great weekend.
