Attendance Data
Beginning September 26th, the State will be monitoring attendance data of our students at Eyestone. Student count will take place from September 26th-October 10th, and will provide both our school and the State with our enrollment figures. The "official" count date is Monday, October 3rd. The enrollment figures have a direct impact on school funding, and thus influence the quality and opportunities of your child's educational experience. We recognize that there may be circumstances out of your child's control that require a school absence on a temporary basis, however, we ask that you continue to stress the importance of attendance for success during their time at Eyestone.
Thank you for your continued support.
We invite you to the PSD Strategic Plan Community Engagement Session
We invite our community to guide the development of Poudre School District’s Strategic Plan at a series of upcoming engagement sessions.
This plan will be our roadmap for the next several years and focuses on four priorities: literacy, graduating with options, mental health and belonging, and school safety. Our data show there are great things happening in PSD but that there are not yet great outcomes for all students. With a strategic plan to help guide us, we believe we can best support learning for all by better aligning practices across our school district.
You are invited to attend this session at 7 p.m. Sept. 15 at Wellington Middle-High School, 2856 Cleveland Ave. in Wellington. There is no need to RSVP. More info and other available sessions >>
Se le invita a la sesión participativa de la comunidad sobre el Plan Estratégico del PSD en Wellington Middle-High School
Invitamos a nuestra comunidad a guiar el desarrollo del Plan Estratégico del Distrito Escolar Poudre (PSD, por sus siglas en inglés), a través de una serie de sesiones participativas que se llevarán a cabo próximamente.
Este plan será nuestra guía para los años venideros, y se enfoca en cuatro prioridades: lecto-escritura, graduación con opciones, salud mental y sentido de pertenencia, así como seguridad escolar. Nuestros datos muestran que en el PSD están sucediendo cosas excelentes, pero aún no hay grandes resultados para todos los estudiantes. Con un plan estratégico que nos sirva de guía, creemos que podemos apoyar mejor el aprendizaje para todos los estudiantes, al tener una mejor concordancia entre las prácticas que se utilizan en todo nuestro distrito escolar.
Se le invita a asistir a esta sesión en Wellington Middle-High School, 2856 Cleveland Ave., en Wellington, el 15 de septiembre, a las 7:00 p.m. No hay necesidad de confirmar su asistencia. Más información y otras sesiones a las que puede asistir >>
