Montbello Middle Family Update

Montbello Middle Families,

While there has been various postings both in the media as well as on Social Media Sites, we want to ensure you that school will go on with normal operations for Monday February 3rd.

Thanks!

There are many questions regarding policy changes with the change in administration at the Federal Level and it's impact on our students and families. The District has put together resources that families can use to hopefully answer many questions you all may have.

Please take a moment to review the District's toolkit with immigration resources for families. The toolkit is available in English and Spanish, and contains information and resources about rights, current DPS policies, training, mental health support, DPS resources and community partner resources.

You may also reference the District's Safe and Welcoming webpage which also contains information from the toolkits such as current DPS policies, resources and an FAQ. DPS will continue to work with city agencies and community organizations to provide additional resources via the toolkits and webpage.

Please be sure that we have the most up to date contact information for parents and guardians. If you're uncertain that your information is up to date, please reach out to our main office at 720-424-0850

This Wednesday February 5th will not be an early release day. Students will be released at 3:50pm

On Thursday February 6th, Montbello Middle will host an 8th Grade Parent Night from 5 - 6:30pm.
