Happy Friday Columbine Community,
First, thank you all so much for your understanding, flexibility, and support in what was a challenging week and challenging decision we had to make for our students and staff. We are hopeful the high heat is done for the season and we will have our typical school schedule moving forward.
SHOUT OUT to Station 10 from the Denver Fire Department, our proud neighborhood station located on MLK and Steele, who created an unforgettable experience for our students on Tuesday!
*NEW DATE* Back-to-School Night Next Week!
On Thursday, September 15th we will have our whole school Back to School Night. We will start promptly at 5:00pm in the auditorium. All families will start in the auditorium at 5:00 and then transition to classrooms. There will be two sessions for each class so that families with multiple kids can attend all sessions from 5:15-5:35 and 5:40-6:00.
First PTA Meeting
Our first PTA meeting will immediately follow BTSN on Thursday, September 15th. We are partnering with Bruce Randolph School’s cheerleaders and volleyball players in order to provide childcare. Pizza will be served for those who are able to stay from 6:30-7:30.
