MCE Cheers with Thornton!
Letter from the Principal
Hi Families:
What a fun week of snow, parents and cheerleaders!! On Wednesday we had our Coffee with the Principal. Parents did a fantastic job communicating ideas and concerns. There was a lot of information shared regarding our upcoming conferences. On Thursday, a number of our students cheered with Thornton High School Cheer. We will continue our partnership with THS for upcoming events. Thank you to Thornton High School for making that happen! Lots to do in the next coming weeks! Thank you for partnering with us!

Student Survey for 3rd, 4th and 5th grade students
Dear McElwain Families,
Earlier this month you received an email announcing that all schools in the Five Star District will be administering the first Social-Emotional Learning Survey this year. I am writing to let you know that McElwain 3rd, 4th and 5th grade students will receive the survey next week (January 31-February 4, 2022).
Our school is committed to increasing social-emotional resources and support for all students. In alignment with our community-driven strategic plan, ELEVATE, we are excited to provide students with a survey that will allow us to measure the impact of those resources on our students’ social-emotional learning. Although this survey does not collect personally identifiable information, it does allow us to view feedback trends and patterns across our school that will inform how we approach social-emotional learning for all students.
If you have any questions regarding the survey, I encourage you to look at the following:
Thank you for your participation in this survey. We are excited to learn more about the social-emotional needs of our students in order to provide them with the best possible educational experience.
Please feel free to reach out to us with any questions at: 720-972-5500
Sincerely,
Sara Olson
