What is October Count/Pupil Count?
Pupil Count is the count of students we have in attendance from September 25th - October 9th, with the official count day of October 2nd. It is very important that students are not absent during Pupil Count as this is how WPS receives funding for staff, material/supplies, Title 1 among other important things.
Each year all public school districts across the state of Colorado participate in the Student October Count data submission to the Colorado Department of Education (CDE). The Student October Count is based on a one-day membership count. The districts are asked to report all students who are actively enrolled and attending classes through their district on that date.
We Need Your Help
- Please have students in school on time

As a thank you gift we will have Kona Ice on Monday and our first spirit week! We highly encourage families to also participate and post their pictures on our Facebook page. Please be on the lookout from Principal Trujillo's post.
