Dear Skyview Families,

As we roll into March we are quickly approaching the end of the 3rd quarter, which will end on March 4th. Please take time to review your students' grades in PowerSchool and reach out to teachers if you have any questions. We look forward to spring sports and looking ahead to the 4th quarter. Spring is a busy time of year and I encourage you to check the SMS website for updates. Spring break will be from March 21- April 1. As we move into 4th quarter counselors will be working with students to begin for the 22-23 SY. If you have any questions regarding scheduling, please contact your students' grade level counselor. Please take time to enjoy time with friends and family during spring break.

GO EAGLES!

Skyview Families,

I would like to update you on an issue that has been occurring at Skyview. Students are texting their parents and telling them that they are sick and need to go home. Parents then come to pick up their child and the Health Room never knows that they left school sick. If your child texts you that they are not feeling well, PLEASE direct them to the health room PRIOR to coming to pick them up. There are a number of reasons why this is important.

First, we can evaluate your child and perhaps we can treat them so that they can stay in school or if we need to monitor symptoms of covid. Second, if we evaluate them, we know what brought them in to the health room. We check attendance logs and illness logs so we can see if there is an illness in a particular area. This is important because we can deep clean those rooms and we can try prevent an outbreak. Lastly, it is against our technology policy for children to text during the school day. We will never deny your child from contacting you and we will do this on behalf of your child.

We also monitor children that continue to come to the health room to see if there is an illness pattern. This also may assist the doctor when treating your child. Our goal is always to keep your child healthy and safe and we cannot do this without your cooperation. It is really important to let us know when your child is ill. With monitoring the Coronavirus per County and State guidelines, we have to have a plan and be able to keep students healthy and safe.

As always, we appreciate your collaboration in helping keep our students and staff healthy.

If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to Jennifer Debelak Health Para or Erika Radcliff, RN, BSN, School Nurse at 719-495-5562.

It is time to send in your baby pictures for the 8th grade baby picture page in the yearbook. Please send them to pgower@d49.org. Deadline is Friday, March 11.

As the most recent survey came out on school and family engagement, it got me thinking…

Skyview SAC (School Accountability Committee) is one way that you can engage and influence your middle school. It is a great way to be involved and know what is happening at Skyview without embarrassing our kids. The SMS SAC committee meets once a month (except for October & March) to discuss, inquire and advise the building leadership. We discuss how the tax dollars that are allocated to us are spent, what direction the school should go with regards to the UIP (Unified Improvement Plan) and we share difficulties and ideas to solve them. Please put our final 2 meetings on your calendar: Thursday April 14th and May 12th. We do our best to keep meetings to 1 hour and they start at 5:30 pm in the library at Skyview. The agenda for the meeting should be available on the Skyview Website one week prior to the meeting (Skyview Middle School SAC Page)

The book fair was a success! So many books were sold we will be able to purchase $2,000.00 worth of new books. I look forward to ordering them and getting them into all the students' hands.

Thank you all for helping the library.

We are pleased to announce School District 49 will provide a school meal at no cost for all students through the end of the '21-'22 school year.

Thank you,
