Indian Peaks Elementary: Moose News

Indian Peaks staff welcomed students to school this week with messages of encouragement on CMAS. Thank you, staff, for always inspiring our students to do their best!

Spring is upon us! Second grade students wrote about signs of spring by sharing changes in spring, and changes in themselves as learners from the beginning of the year. Great job, 2nd graders - we're so proud of you!

CMAS Testing is in full swing at Indian Peaks! Third-Fifth Grade students worked hard on the Math & Language Arts CMAS last week. We will finish the Language Arts Assessment on Monday and Tuesday. Fifth Grade students will finish the week with Science on Wednesday, Thursday, & Friday.

Please remind your student to be well-rested this week!

We are so excited to share that Indian Peaks will be hosting a STEM/Literacy Night on Thursday, April 24th from 5:00-6:30!

This event will feature hands-on STEM, literacy, and math activity stations, including take-home strategies and activities for families. St. Vrain’s Mobile Innovation Lab will be on-site with interactive STEM experiences in virtual reality, robotics, and more. Light refreshments will be provided.

During our STEM Literacy Open House, we will also be hosting a special kindergarten information session for our incoming families. During this event, kindergarteners and their parents will have the opportunity to meet our kindergarten teachers, tour the classrooms, ask questions, and learn how they can prepare for the first day of school. The teacher presentation will begin at 5:30 p.m. followed by a meet and greet.
