Executive Directors' Update
Dear Families,
Thanks so much to all who were able to join us for the Homecoming tailgate party on Thursday evening. What fun it was to celebrate with our community!
Town Halls: We wanted to let you know that the first of three planned “town halls” will happen on Wednesday, October 18, 2023 from 9-10am. We will use these town halls to share information with the community on key strategic initiatives happening at the school in alignment with our strategic plan. If time allows, we will take questions from the audience pertaining to the topics discussed at the town hall. We will also solicit feedback from the community via a survey after the event. Families can attend town halls in person, but we will also offer a virtual option and make a recording available afterwards.
At this first town hall, Jennie Klein will share information on 2022-23 academic outcomes as well and information related to our K-12 Executive Function Initiative. Jennifer Douglas will share a high level overview of the 2023-24 budget and update the community on some exciting developments pertaining to our facilities.
Future town halls will be held on January 23, 2024 from 4:30 - 5:30pm and on March 13, 2024 from 6 to 7pm. We have intentionally scheduled the town halls at different times of day to ensure that parents/guardians with different work schedules and other commitments can attend; again, all will be recorded and available virtually both during and after the event.
As always, we are open and available for questions, concerns, or feedback from the community, so please reach out. Thanks for your partnership in serving our wonderful Peak to Peak students!
Jennie Klein, Executive Director of Education
Jennifer Douglas, Executive Director of Operations

Food Waste in Cafeteria
Hello families!This year every public school student is eligible for free lunch under Colorado's Healthy Meals for All (Prop FF in 2022). As exciting as this opportunity is for students and families, staff has noticed a huge increase in food waste from our cafeteria. We have observed that some students are getting free lunches, even if they brought their own, to receive a free Izze drink. The rest of the lunch is discarded in the trash. If you are willing, please join us in encouraging kids to minimize food waste by taking the following steps:1- Talk to your kids about only taking a free lunch if they intend to eat the meal to avoid food waste.2- Place unwanted pre-packaged items (packaged veggies, fruits, Craisins) in the donation/reuse boxes, located in the cafeteria across from the registers. I will donate these items.Thanks for your cooperation!If you have any questions, comments or ideas, please reach out!Monika Bunting -
