Dear Sanborn Dragon Thunder,

I am thrilled to announce that our CMAS (Colorado Measures of Academic Success) testing has begun, and we’re off to a fantastic start! I couldn’t be prouder of our students’ preparation and the dedication of our staff. Their hard work and commitment truly shine through during this time. It’s heartwarming to witness the incredible effort and enthusiasm displayed by our students as they tackle these challenges head-on. Their commitment to their education is truly commendable, and it reflects the strong foundation of support and encouragement provided by our school community. Furthermore, I want to extend my deepest gratitude to our exceptional team of educators for their unwavering commitment to ensuring our students are well-prepared and confident going into these assessments. Their passion for teaching and dedication to nurturing each child’s potential is truly inspiring, and I am grateful to have such a talented and caring group of professionals guiding our students every day.

Thank you for your continued support and encouragement as we navigate through this testing period together. Your partnership in your child’s education is invaluable.

Dragons SOAR!!!

Lori Peeples

DRAGON DROPS

Science is all around us, and finding ways to incorporate it into our daily lives can be both fun and educational for our children. Whether it’s observing nature on a walk, conducting simple experiments in the kitchen, or discussing the science behind everyday phenomena, there are countless opportunities to spark curiosity and foster a love for learning. Encouraging questions, exploring answers together, and nurturing a sense of wonder can go a long way in cultivating a deeper understanding of the world around us. Let’s embark on this scientific journey with our children, igniting their passion for discovery one conversation at a time.

Go Dragons!
