Fall Season is upon us

Good morning Gator Nation,

As falls sets in we prepare for some big upcoming events-  The fall season also represents the first 6 week grading process and provides both schools and families with a glimpse of learning and progression toward semester grades.  Please keep in touch with staff and administration when necessary to ensure we are providing a conducive environment for students to experience success.

SAFETY- SECURITY-
Parents-  Please help support the school by communicating to your students that during our school day from 7:00 to 2:30pm the only entrance to the building will be in the main doors.  We continue to have issues with students banging on side doors disrupting classes waiting for someone to let them in.  To provide the most secure and safest environment we continue to encourage all students and community to enter through the main entry doors during the school day.  THANK YOU-

IMPORTANT SURVEY-
Parents-  JEFFCO schools is working to improve our marketing, communication, and education of schools and programs in the district.  With Colorado being a choice option state, students have an opportunity to apply for choice into any school they choose.  This survey will provide the district with some important data to both improve the process and ensure we have high caliber programs available to students all across the JEFFCO area.  Here is the link- http://www.jeffcopublicschools.org/choice_survey/High.pdf

TRICK OR TREAT ST.-
SLHS will once again host our annual trick or treat street on Thursday October 30th from 5-8pm.  Clubs, sports, and programs here at SLHS will provide plenty of candy, fun, and a safe Halloween environment for kids to enjoy.  For more information please see our school website-  slhsgators.com

FALL PLAY-
Please come out and join our talented drama department as they present the Fall Play "Clockwork".  Performances will take place in the SLHS auditorium on October 16, 17, and 18th-  Each night's performance starts at 7:00pm-

ASPIRE TESTING- CANCELLED-  There's been multiple issues with the new ASPIRE testing to include the need to order tests in the Spring which wasnt completed therefore the ASPIRE testing will be cancelled.  However we ARE planning on providing a practice ACT exam to all sophomore students to help both the school and the student get an indicator on present performance levels and then a great indicator moving into their junior assessment.
