CALLING ALL MIDDLE SCHOOL PARENTS!

Join us on Zoom, Thursday, April 8th at 5:00 pm


In collaboration with The Colorado Symphony, we are starting a schoolwide project called "LIFT EVERY VOICE." As part of our focus on inclusion and equity, this project creates ways for all students to express themselves through the arts.


This work will culminate in a family celebration in May.


During this SAC meeting on April 8th, we will hear from the Colorado Symphony as well as an artist from the project. Join us to hear about our work and our exciting plans in the works including entertainment, food, games, and more. This will be an awesome celebration for all! Mark your calendars.
