Community Update 9/23/2

Posted September 28, 2022

Happy Friday Columbine Community, 

What a beautiful week with some cooler weather! I hope that you all are able to make it to Movie Night tonight!

As we shared last week, this year, our parent-teacher conferences will take place on Tuesday, October 11th and Wednesday, October 12th. Please look for sign up opportunities from your child’s teacher via Bloomz. 

As a reminder, students do not have school on Friday, September 30th – this is a teacher work day. 

We have some exciting news! Columbine will be doing a Fall Fundraiser to raise funds for teacher resources, student field trips and student supports.

You will be receiving a fundraising packet today, please check your student’s backpack when he/she gets home. If you have any questions you can contact the main office.

Reminder! We have a new after school program coming to Columbine! If your student is interested in learning Hip Hop dancing, use this flyer to sign up and learn more!

Enjoy the weekend and Go Broncos!
