Colts Chronicle
A Cimarron Middle School community communication.
A Note from the Front Office
Our mission at Cimarron is to ensure that we all have a safe environment where each student can learn and socialize each day to reach their fullest potential. The Cimarron Staff's goal is to keep students in school. When masks are not worn, or worn improperly, we are required to report that to TriCounty Health.
We have been so excited to have all of us back in the building! There has been so much energy, positivity and involvement. We want to continue to be able to provide these experiences for students and families. If everyone can help to limit the spread of COVID, we can all remain in school and keep moving forward with our mission.
One of the things that we are trying to keep from happening is to have Tri County Health mandate that Cimarron has to start cohorting and separate teams, cancel our gatherings like assemblies, or more quarantines. The last thing we want to see is them shutting our doors to go to a remote setting.
We would like to ask for your support in reminding your students to wear a mask, unless your student has a medical exemption.
Our goal is to keep all students at Cimarron each and everyday and to keep the focus on teaching and learning.
As a reminder if your student is experiencing any symptoms please see the attached symptom screening document (link) for guidance on when it is safe to return to school after illness. This document is also available on the district website, under "Looking Forward"
