Eiber's Adventure Update
September 28th, 2022
October Count!
Dear families of Eiber:
It’s official – October Count Day this year is Monday, October 3. The most important action you can take to support school funding is to make sure your student attends school on that day. Much of public education funding from the State of Colorado is based on student count, so we encourage you to be sure your student engages in school that day.
The “count window” the state observes is from Monday, September 26 through Monday, October 10, but the most important student count day is Monday, October 3. Please help us ensure an accurate count by having your student participate in learning that day.
If your student will be absent on Monday, October 3 due to illness, call our attendance line, 303-982-6406 to report the absence. Attendance during the “count window” will help counteract an absence on Monday, October 3.
Thank you for your support of Eiber Elementary school. Every student counts!
Sincerely,
Stacy Bedell
Principal
Fun at the Colorado Rockies game!
Each year the Eiber staff work with students to set targets for academic growth on their assessments. Last year, students and their teacher reviewed their past test scores and set a target for where they needed to score in order to achieve high growth. Students had to meet or exceed their target on both of their MAP assessments (reading and math) in the spring. Students who achieved either of these goals earned a trip to see the Colorado Rockies, along with Ms. Bedell and several of their teachers. Although the Rockies did not get a win, the kids had a great time spending the beautiful afternoon at the game with their friends!
Tiger Invitational Track Meet
On Saturday, our Eiber Eagles joined the other Lakewood area elementary schools at the 18th annual Tiger invitational at Lakewood High School. It was a beautiful day and our 4th and 5th grade athletes showed up, competed hard and cheered for everyone! We are thankful for everyone that participated and their families for supporting them. We would like to send a big THANK YOU to our fantastic coaches - Mr. Schwab, Ms. Robles and Ms. Coy. Thank you for your time and dedication!
Parent/Teacher Conferences
Our fall Parent/Teacher conferences are just around the corner! This year we will be changing the way we have families sign up for conferences. We will be moving to an online format and will be using SignUpGenius. Please look out for an email from your child’s teacher on Friday with a link to the signup. Please make sure that your email address is updated in infinite campus so that our teachers have the correct contact information. If you need any assistance with opening the sign-up or submitting your chosen conference time, please reach out to Maria Beken at 303-982-4853.
