Hello CPS Students and Guardians,

I hope you are having a great summer and enjoying the beauty all around us in Colorado Springs!

If you haven't already seen our calendar for next year, which we posted on our social media pages, you can see it on our website here.

We are back to school on Monday, July 17th. We are definitely back before many schools, but it is because of our 4-day school week. Colorado law requires us to have 160 school days in the year, and a few more to adjust for snow days, etc. Since we have fewer school days in our week, we have to compensate with a shorter summer break.

It's important that students come back in July so that they meet the state requirements for attendance.

Looking forward to seeing you on July 17th!

Sincerely,

Raj Solanki
Principal

Back to School!

Hello CPS Community!  School is back in session! We are now in our 2nd week of school.  As a reminder, Colorado requires students to attend 160 days in the year. Since we have a 4-day school week, we must cut our summer short in order to meet that 160 day requirement.  Due to technical issues, we were not able to send out this reminder message until now. We apologize for the delay. We look forward to having the best year yet! "The best preparation for tomorrow is doing your best today." -H. Jackson Brown, Jr.

Vape Policy

Hello CPS Community! We want to make you aware of a new policy on vapes at CPS due to problems with vapes being used inside the school. If vapes are seen inside the school building, they will be confiscated and only be given back to a parent or guardian who is at least 21 years old. Please let us know if you have any questions. Here is the specific policy: Vaping is not allowed inside the building. Vaping and smoking must take place at least 25 feet from any entrance. If a vape is seen inside the building, it will be confiscated and only released to a parent or guardian who is at least 21 years of age. Rationale Since July 1, 2019, the state of Colorado has expanded The Colorado Clean Indoor Air Act to specify that smoking or vaping is not allowed in any public building and must take place at least 25 feet away from any entrance to a public building [ Link ].
