Attendance Matters

Why does attendance matter?

We often hear from graduates that they wish they would have worked consistently when they were younger so they wouldn't have had to play catch up later and graduate late. The upside of out system at CPS is that it is possible to catch up on credits when a student is behind. The downside is that students need more individual motivation to do work that doesn't necessarily have a due date. 

When a student misses school, he or she gets more and more behind, and has more catching up to do later, and has more of a chance of not finishing high school at all. 

Please make it a priority to have regular attendance, and let us know what we can do to help you!


¿Por qué es importante la asistencia?


Escuchamos una y otra vez de los graduados que desearían haber trabajado de manera constante cuando eran más jóvenes para no haber tenido que ponerse al día más tarde y graduarse tarde. La ventaja de nuestro sistema en CPS es que es posible ponerse al día con los créditos cuando un estudiante está atrasado. La desventaja es que se necesita más motivación individual de los estudiantes para hacer un trabajo que no necesariamente tiene una fecha de entrega. 

Cuando un estudiante falta a la escuela, se atrasa cada vez más y tiene más cosas que ponerse al día más tarde, o tiene más posibilidades de no terminar la escuela secundaria. 

¡Convierta la asistencia regular en una prioridad!

"¡Asista hoy, logre el mañana!"

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.
