Colts Chronicle
Cimarron Middle School Newsletter - October 5, 2018
Colts Chronicle provides information to parents, students, staff, and community.
Principal Notes:
Fall break is a great time to reflect on our first quarter, and I am so proud of the accomplishments of our students!
Thank you for partnering with our staff to continue to provide learner-centered opportunities and resources for our students. Learning expeditions, field studies, technology, guest speakers, performing and visual arts, foreign language, athletics and clubs are just a few of the choice opportunities that allow us to meet the needs of all students at Cimarron.
This past Friday our students attend and participated in the Fall Be RED Assembly. There were class cheers, pep assembly style games, spirit sticks, and students were recognized as being Caught RED Handed. These students will be a part of this group and will develop character leadership skills and will promote the Be RED philosophy of Respect, Excellence, Determination.
On behalf of the the entire staff we appreciate your support and partnership, and look forward to a great second quarter at Cimarron!

Transportation Update Z-Pass+
Cimarron distributed new Zpasses to most students who requested a new Zpass during online check-in. Transportation has not received all the new passes for students who requested the new pass during August online check-in. If your student has not receive a pass and you requested a new pass, transportation has more that will be sent to schools in the next few weeks.
If you have not requested a new pass please follow the instructions on Transportation's Website or if you have specific questions please use the LET's Talk Page for the quickest response.
All bus riders will need the updated Zpass+
Reunification Drill at Cimarron
As you know, safety is our number one priority at Cimarron Middle School and in Douglas County School District. With that said, we are constantly monitoring physical safety for all students. This includes Standard Response Protocols (SRP) for Evacuation, Shelter in Place, Lockout and Lockdown. We have successfully completed two evacuation drills and one shelter in place drill so far this school year.
