Julesburg School District

We are conducting a School Safety Program TODAY in conjunction with the Colorado State Patrol and our local Law Enforcement, Fire and EMS agencies. Part of the safety program is to test all communications platforms, so in a few minutes, you likely will be receiving a reverse 911 call regarding the "STAGED" vehicle accident that is a part of the School Safety Program. The purpose of this message is to inform you that this is NOT a real accident at the school, it is a staged accident that is part of the school safety program we are conducting at the school today.

The Good News Call of the Day goes to Josh Palic, Owen Harris and Cash Campbell. These three gentlemen just spent three days on a business trip with FBLA and when the bus unloaded, they voluntarily jumped back on to clean it out. They meticulously checked every seat, under each seat, swept the bus, and then hauled all the trash to the dumpster. Then they headed to their respective sports practices. A true demonstration of outstanding leadership!!!

Kindergarten has been working really hard on learning the different combinations to make 10. Today they played a game with their partner that reinforced this concept.

Two heads are better than one, in some cases three or four are. Third grade testing together for their reading test today. Students read the passage together and each gave an answer for the question, but they had to prove their answer by using text evidence to supported their choice.

Preschool celebrated "100 Days of Growing" with a movie day complete with concession stand and comfy seats. Students were able to vote on the movie of their choice and landed on "The Lorax" which aligns nicely with the theme. Keeping in line with the growing theme, we decorated flower pots and planted flowers that we will watch grow in the classroom before sending them home.

Julesburg School in the morning before the students arrive .

Mr. Calvadores would like to give a Good News Call of the Day to Kiva Clark due to his initiative to clean the Science classroom. He took a broom and started cleaning the mess he saw and even picked up some trash from the different parts of the classroom. He asked permission and Mr. Calvadores let him do it because he finished all his assignments. Great work Kiva!
