What should I wear?

Colorado weather changes regularly! Please check the weather forecast each evening and plan with your child what they are going to wear to school the next day. Be sure they have coats, hats, and gloves ready when storms come. Want a weather report on anywhere in the world /school closure status/ski reports/Pikes Peak Cam and many more features, go to the following site: http://www.cssd11.k12.co.us Click on the words "click for forecast" in the banner for the weather report. This is an excellent parent link. Another quick link to local forecasting: http://www.krdotv.com/ Click on Navigations and choose weather.

Lost and Found

Is your student missing an article of clothing? Please take a few minutes to stop by the office to check the lost and found when you are dropping your student off or picking them up at the end of the day.

PTCO-Parent Teacher Community Organization
Kevin Moore - PTCO President Columbia

Columbia's PTCO invites all Columbia families to join. Membership is $3 per family. The PTCO raises funds for classroom use, special projects like playground equipment, and special events like the Sock Hop, School Carnival and Chili Supper.

We'd like to thank all our wonderful volunteers, without their hard work, Columbia would not be able to support our students and community with all we do! However, it not only takes great volunteers but also the wonderful support of our students' parents who come and participate in the events that Columbia sponsors. A HUGE thanks to everyone!

Keep saving those cans for Can Collection Day. Remember, can money goes to playground needs. Get the schedule for can collections!

Check the school's calendar for monthly PTCO Events.

Volunteers

Columbia welcomes volunteers to help out in the classrooms or office. If you are interested, please stop by the office to sign in and complete two volunteer cards, one for PTCO and one for the administration office. It does not matter how much time you volunteer, your help is needed and appreciated throughout the year! We are always looking for volunteers to serve on the PTCO (Parent/Teacher/Community Organization) and the Accountability Committee (both at the school level and district level.) If you would like to help shape the future of our schools, these are excellent committees to become involved in! If you are interested in volunteering at Columbia, please be sure to fill out and return the Volunteer Survey that will be sent home with your students in their First Day Packets.

Soup Labels and Box Tops for Education

We are still collecting soup can labels as well as Box Tops for Education. You may turn the box tops into your student's homeroom teacher. Soup labels may be turned into the office or the giant soup can at the front entrance. Thanks for your continued support of these two worthwhile projects to help Columbia earn extra monies for special projects!

Student Technology User Agreements

When your student comes home with a Student User Agreement for you to sign, please sign and send the contract back to their teacher promptly. Students MUST have this paper signed to use any technology at school. Students are restricted in how they use the Internet and e-mail in the classroom. The classroom teacher previews the sites they want to use with their curriculum, obtains permission to use the sites, and the students are not allowed to use other sites. Students may NOT surf the Internet at will !! Students will receive instruction on how they are expected to use Internet at school. Any student NOT following the guidelines will lose their privilege to use Internet. In the future students will have an email address to use for educational purposes.

Aluminum Can Collections

Please help Columbia's PTCO earn extra money for projects by recycling your aluminum cans. Please put your student's name and teacher name on each sack turned in. Special rewards are given for students collecting the most cans. Mark your calendars with the Aluminum can collection dates. Thanks for your support!

PTCO Aluminum Can Collection Collection day is the first Wednesday of each month.

Student Packets

Each Friday an information packet will be sent home with your students containing various informational flyers and the monthly newsletter. These items are sent home to help keep you informed about activities at your student's school. Please be sure to check your student's backpack each Friday when they come home from school. You will need to take all items out of the packet, sign the front and return it to your student's homeroom teacher by the following Monday. Please do not send signed permission slips, etc. back to school in the Friday packet. Individuals stuffing these weekly information packets will not regard any items returned in the packet.

Remember--check those backpacks for important information that is being sent home to you!
