This week we had our first task force meeting for our equity and culture task force. There are some photos of our work below. It was a privilege to hear from those who were able to join us. We discussed what equity, restorative practices, discipline, and engagement mean and built a vision of what that can look like at Everitt. Next time, we will look at some Everitt data and begin the work of transformation. It isn't too late to join! Our next meeting is on Thursday, April 27th from 2:45-3:45 pm.

Our 8th graders did a great job this week on their CMAS science tests and all we have left to do is make-ups! We are so proud of our students for how hard they worked during testing this year!

Next Friday is our Everitt musical. Our musical theatre students have been dancing, singing and acting all semester in preparation for this show. Bring your family and come see Seussical the Musical at Wheat Ridge High School at 6:30 pm on Friday!

As we move into warmer weather (today's weather notwithstanding), I wanted to share a quick reminder of our dress code. Often our kids have grown quite a bit (I know mine has!) since the last time we were in shorts weather and things don't fit quite like they did in the fall. We are working to stock up our Hub so if we can help with some warm-weather clothes for your child, let us know. See the image below for details about the dress code.

There are two special events coming up in our community that I'd like to highlight so that you can get them on your calendars. Vivian New Classical Academy and Wilmore Davis Elementary will be holding community celebrations/closing ceremonies in early May. These two wonderful schools have been home to amazing kids, families, and educators for decades. We are so grateful for both of the schools and for all that they've done for the Wheat Ridge community. If you are able, I hope that you will join the Vivian and Wilmore Davis communities for these celebrations. I know they would love to see you!

Thank you for supporting and believing in your neighborhood school. It is our privilege to partner with you!

Hello 7th Grade Parents,

We are looking for help with snacks and beverages as well as chaperones for the upcoming 7th grade dance. The Student Council is working hard planning the "Through the Decades" dance. Please sign up to either supply a treat or chaperone (or if you would like you could sign up for both). We are also looking for monetary donations to help pay for the awesome picture booth. Please feel free to contact me with any questions.

Thank you so much!
