Skyview School of STEM
October 5, 2023
Attendance
Please call the attendance line (970)686-8505 before 8:30am if your child is going to be absent from school or report absences in the Parent Portal. An automated call will go out at 8:45am if the student is marked absent and we haven't received a call from the parent. The student will be marked unexcused until we hear from a parent.
Treating the School Staff
Hello Skyview Families!
To show appreciation for the Skyview School of STEM staff, the Mailbox Elves like to provide a small token in each mailbox one day during a specified month. This year we have about 78 mailboxes to fill and we try to keep each token under or around $1 per person so any participation is appreciated no matter how large or small. Below is a signup link that offers different opportunities each month for help in providing supplies or monetary donations to put together these special tokens for the staff. https://www.signupgenius.com/go/60B0D4CACAC2DA3F58-44431638-skyview
We ask that any donated items be dropped off or sent by the date indicated for each month's slot on the signup as this will ensure the delivery will be made before any holiday breaks. For questions, item drop off locations, and monetary donation instructions please email Kelsey Hewell directly at hewellhouse@gmail.com for further instructions.
Thank you for your time and contributions! The teachers and staff at Skyview are amazing and we look forward to brightening their remaining days throughout this school year!
Immunization Compliance
Attention parents! By October 30th your student must be compliant with the state immunization process either by being up to date with current required immunizations or by completing the exemption process. If your student is not compliant, they will be excluded from school starting October 30th. You can view your student's immunization record and status on the parent portal by selecting "more" from the menu options, then selecting "health, immunizations."
Please contact Mrs Cobb in the health office with any questions. 970-686-8512.
The Bookmobile at Skyview
The Clearview Library Bookmobile comes to Skyview on Thursdays. Students who have a Clearview library card have an opportunity to check out books with their classes every other week as the schedule allows.

Safe Schools Month: District Safety & Security Department
October is Safe Schools Month - a time to bring a focus on how our district and larger community can work together to make our schools safer and more secure. In Weld RE-4, we believe that in order to thrive in the classroom, students must have safe and secure learning environments. Safe and secure learning environments are fostered in our schools through: a Standard Response Protocol, safety plans, drills and exercises, secure entrances, screened visitors, security cameras, ID cards for staff and high school students, web filters and security settings, emergency response planning, and partnerships with local emergency services. These are just a handful of the items that comprise our safety program. Learn More

Visiting/Volunteering? Don't forget your ID
As part of our ongoing efforts to increase the safety and security of our schools, we will continue to require all visitors and volunteers to be processed through the Raptor Technologies screening system. All non-staff members wishing to access the school building will need to provide a state / government-issued ID at check in. Volunteers must reapply each school year.
Visitors
Visitors typically do not work with students unsupervised and are not engaging with regular and ongoing volunteer activities. Utilizing a state or government issued ID, all visitors will be screened against the registered sex offender database.
Volunteers (including field trip chaperones)
Volunteers are involved on a more regular and ongoing basis and may be alone with students. All volunteers must complete an application and background check that includes a search of the national criminal database, sex offender list, and terrorist watchlist. Once an account has been created and the application has been approved, you will be able to login and review volunteer opportunities at your selected schools. Apply Now (English|Spanish)
