Principal’s Update

Dear Parents and Guardians,

We would love to get CRMS parents more involved with CRMS and SVVSD.  There are several opportunities in the near future.  Next Thursday, September 14th is our first PTO meeting of the year from 5:30 – 6:30 pm in the CRMS Library.  We meet one time per quarter throughout the year.  

On Monday, September 25th, our Superintendent, Dr. Haddad will be hosting a Town Hall Meeting from 5:30 – 7 pm at Frederick High School.  This is a great opportunity to meet with Dr. Haddad, our Frederick Feeder Principals, and our school board members.

Finally, applications are currently being accepted for Leadership St. Vrain.  Leadership St. Vrain meets monthly to discuss educational topics.  The parents who have participated in the past have reported how much they enjoyed the information.  If you would like more information about any of these events, please contact me directly. [email protected]

We are pleased that we are again able to offer an extended school day for math support.  AAA, Accelerated Achievement Academy, will start on September 19th and be held on Tuesdays and Wednesdays through the semester.  This session will focus on the math currently being taught at each grade level to offer additional support for our students. As before, there is no cost and students will receive an after school snack.  Our academic activity bus is available after school for transportation. Please call Traci Banker in the main office 303-833-4176 to sign up today.

Hoping that all of you are able to participate in our local homecoming activities this weekend.  Go Mavericks! Go Golden Eagles!

Sincerely,

Liza

Two to-do Items in Infinite Campus

Please take a couple of minutes to log into Infinite Campus to complete two tasks for us.

  1. Under More, please click on the right side where it says “Parent Permissions” and go through the list of permissions we need you to sign each year and acknowledge the Code of Conduct. Click here for more detailed instructions on how to sign the Code of Conduct.
  2. Under More, please select Fees and pay the $25 for iPad insurance. The window to be able to pay for iPad insurance closes on Friday, Sept. 15. We believe that every student should have iPad insurance as this will protect your family from the expense of paying to repair the iPad if anything were to happen. Click here to learn more about the iPad insurance.

Art Club

Art Club will be every Wednesday, from 3:00-4:15 p.m. in the Art Room.  We will meet every Wednesday, and it is important to sign up beforehand for each meeting you would like to attend, as space is limited.  Please contact Mr. Abrahams at [email protected] if you have any questions.
