Over the past few class periods, students participated in a Jigsaw Activity where student teams created math presentations on different assigned lessons by Mr. Leins. Teams then got feedback from Mr. Leins before making their final edits. Each team member then met with another member from every other team and students took turns teaching and quizzing other students on their respective content their team was assigned. Students did a great job working together, creating and editing presentations, presenting to small groups, asking questions, solving problems, and providing feedback throughout the Jigsaw Activity. Great work students!

As a part of our Veteran's Day Assembly, scheduled for November 11, 2022 at 8 am, we would like to honor the brave people in our community who have served or are currently serving in the military. To include a member of the military to be honored during our assembly please share their name and the branch of the military they served in or are currently serving in, an optional picture, and bio or information about their time serving in the link below. Thank you for your participation. This year we will invite those Veteran's, as well as families of students and members of our community to our school to join us for our in person assembly.

Veteran's to be honored

Please follow this information shared with us from the Arapahoe County Sheriff's Office:

'NO PARKING' SIGNS IN THE AREA: Parking is defined by stopping, standing, even if the vehicle is occupied - if you see a 'No Parking' sign DO NOT PARK THERE.

NO U-TURN: No U-Turn anywhere on Caley in the school zone.

ILLEGAL TURNS:

• Going Eastbound on Caley there's no left turn onto Elmira Circle West.
• Eastbound on Caley no right turn onto South Florence Way.

REMINDERS:

• Vehicles should NOT block driveways or fire hydrants at anytime even if you are in line. Make sure you leave a space between the car in front of you to keep the driveway/fire hydrant clear.
• Vehicles will be cited and towed at owners expense.
• It is a school zone so during morning and afternoon drop off/pickup the speed limit is only 20mph.
