Halloween Preparation
Dear Families,
As we prepare for upcoming Halloween celebrations scheduled for Friday, October 31, 2025, we want to ensure all students feel comfortable and included. We understand that some families may choose not to participate in Halloween activities. If this applies to your family, we kindly encourage you to reach out to your child’s teacher to review the classroom plans and discuss any alternative activities that may be planned. Thank you for helping make everyone feel included.

News from the Health Office
New Information
As we enter our Fall and Winter seasons, we often see increased illnesses in our students. Just a friendly reminder, please do not send your child to school if they are feeling ill. Several symptoms such as Diarrhea, Vomiting, Fever of 100.4 or greater, Flu-like symptoms, and Respiratory viruses are reasons for students to stay home, and they may not return to school until 24 hours after their last symptom and without using fever-reducing medications.
Any medications, whether prescription or over the counter, that your student may need at school must have a signed order from your doctor, this includes cough drops, ointments & eye drops. We have been seeing several cough drops at school and medications in backpacks.
Please reach out to the Health Office, 970-488-7941, with any questions.
Thank you for keeping all of our students healthy & safe.

SRO CORNER - October 2025
Happy Fall! We are over a month into a new school year, and the SRO team wanted to remind everyone to drive safely. The streets around schools have a speed limit of 20 MPH during morning, afternoon and midday hours. Regardless, you should always drive cautiously around schools as students may be coming and going anytime throughout the day.
Not only is it important to drive slowly, but it is imperative to pay attention to your surroundings. Students arrive in vehicles and students also walk, bike or scooter to school. Take time to look twice before you turn, watch the crossing guards and give space to the vehicles in front of you. City of Fort Collins ordinances allow bicyclists on sidewalks, so please pay extra attention to any pedestrian crossing areas for both walkers and bikers. Also be aware of street signage around your schools. For example, please do not U-turn where there are “no U-turn” signs. It might be inconvenient, but the signs are there for the safety of you and others around the schools.
Give yourself enough time for pick up or drop off so that you aren’t rushing, especially on adverse weather days. Please stay off cell phones while driving and avoid dropping students off in non-designated areas. Students and drivers should remain seat belted until they are ready to exit a stopped vehicle. We also ask the pedestrians to use caution when walking to school. Pay attention to the cars, use designated crosswalk areas and wear helmets if you are on the move!
You will see your SRO’s or other Police Officers around schools conducting traffic education and enforcement. Remember, we are all partners in creating safe roadways for our students, families and staff.
As always, reach out to your SRO for any other questions!
Thank you and stay safe,
SRO Dave Wilson
