5th-8th Grader Summer Device Use
Your student will take home their Tech4All Chromebook on the last day of the school year. This device is essential for accessing our learning tools over the summer, including SORA, Khan Academy, and iReady and Lexia lessons. Before your Chromebook can go home, families are required to acknowledge our Responsible Use Policy in Infinite Campus. Instructions are available in our HowTo guide. Please see this letter from our District IT for more information.
Commemorative Bricks
Our learning garden has available space for additional commemorative bricks. On our May 14th Day of Service, a group of middle school students will engrave the bricks purchased. Families can include messages on the bricks to leave their legacy and mark on our beautiful school. Please click on this link to purchase a brick. Bricks are available for $100, cash or check; checks made payable to High Plains School. Checks or cash can be hand delivered or mailed to the school. All proceeds go toward Middle School Day of Service.
4th Grade PBL
Attention everyone! 4th graders have completed a PBL on distracted driving. As a part of their solution, students have put together a pledge drive to promote safe driving and encourage others to end distracted driving. They will be by the flagpole after school on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 3:35 - 4:00. Bring a parent or guardian to take the pledge, sign our banner, and take a piece of our end distracted driving merch. Students and parents can both take the pledge! Thank you for keeping our community safe. We'll see you there!

We Need You!
PTCO Volunteer Coordinator Needed
Are you a people person who isn’t afraid to strike up a conversation with a stranger? We’re looking for a volunteer coordinator to recruit helpers for events and activities and to help parents find the best way to plug in to our school community. If you’re enthusiastic and understanding of parents’ many time constraints, raise your hand and help us do even more great things for our school! Please contact Shena Schultz at president@highplainsptco.org.
PTCO President Needed:
We want YOU to be our next parent group president or co-president! After 3 years and turning to teaching, our current president would like to hand over the reins by the end of the school year. But, not to fear, Mrs. Schultz is more than willing to help to ensure a smooth transition. We’re looking for a creative problem-solver, someone who’s comfortable delegating and who has enthusiasm for our school. If you’re ready to play a substantial role in supporting our school, we want to hear from you! Please contact Shena Schultz at president@highplainsptco.org.
