Skyview School of STEM

Weld Elves is an organization of Weld County First Responders that provides holiday gifts for families in need in our community. Skyview is a collection spot. If you would like to make a new toy donation, please put it in the box located in the front door foyer near the office. Thank you for supporting our community!

The Board of Education voted to approve new elementary and middle school boundaries at its November 13 regular meeting. A revised boundary map can be found at https://bit.ly/3qTQJjH. The impact of the changes includes:

• Elementary School Students — The new boundary schools for elementary students will take effect for the 2024 - 2025 school year. Students entering second grade at Tozer Primary School and fifth grade at all schools in 2024 - 2025 will have the option to remain at their current school, although transportation will not be provided.
  
  

• Middle School Students — The new boundary schools for middle school students will take effect for the 2025 - 2026 school year. Students entering eighth grade in 2025 - 2026 will have the option to remain at their current school, although transportation will not be provided.
  
  

• High School Students — Boundaries for high school students remain unchanged.

All elementary school families will receive a message at the end of November notifying them of their new boundary school. If families desire to attend a school that is not their assigned boundary school, a Choice Enrollment application will be needed, including those entering second grade at Tozer Primary School and fifth grade at all schools.

If your student has been previously accepted to a school via Choice Enrollment, their acceptance will be honored through the remainder of their year(s) at that level (i.e., elementary, middle, or high), and you do not need to re-apply. Learn More

The Lost and Found is bursting at the seams! With the shift in weather many coats, jackets and hoodies have been left on the playground. Please remind your children to check the lost and found. All items will be donated during Winter Break. We suggest putting the child's name on coats and please double check sizes to be sure that your child has the correct coat. There are some coats of the same style in different sizes.

There are three potential winter-weather scenarios in our district: a closure, two-hour delay, and early dismissal. In the case of any of these scenarios, we will send a message through Infinite Campus, as well as post on the district’s website and Facebook page as soon as possible. Please make sure your contact information is up-to-date through the Infinite Campus app or website. If you don’t have an Infinite Campus account, visit our Parent Applications Dashboard page for a how-to guide or contact the front office. LEARN MORE

Thanks!

**Visiting/Volunteering? Don't forget your ID**

As part of our ongoing efforts to increase the safety and security of our schools, we will continue to require all visitors and volunteers to be processed through the Raptor Technologies screening system. All non-staff members wishing to access the school building will need to provide a state / government-issued ID at check in. Volunteers must reapply each school year.

Visitors

Visitors typically do not work with students unsupervised and are not engaging with regular and ongoing volunteer activities. Utilizing a state or government issued ID, all visitors will be screened against the registered sex offender database.

Volunteers (including field trip chaperones)

Volunteers are involved on a more regular and ongoing basis and may be alone with students. All volunteers must complete an application and background check that includes a search of the national criminal database, sex offender list, and terrorist watchlist. Once an account has been created and the application has been approved, you will be able to login and review volunteer opportunities at your selected schools. Apply Now (English|Spanish)

Every year OtterCares selects one school to create ornament designs for their company. One design is selected to be made into an ornament. This ornament is then presented to all their employees as a gift for Christmas. Scarlett was selected as the design winner this year.
