Colorful board with the words "make this day great!" on it

Dear Colorado Skies Academy Families,

Remember to set your clocks ahead one hour tonight, as Daylight Saving Time begins Monday morning at 2:00 am. (On a related note, happy “How Do I Change the Clock on My Microwave” Day!)

Monday, March 13th is a big day at CSA! Not only is it the last day of our online Spirit Wear sale, but it’s the last day to turn in late/missing work from Quarter 3. Also, we have a 6th-grade Presentation of Learning. Student groups have an assigned presentation window between 8:30 am and 10:30 am. Please check the schedule on our Community Calendar for when your learner will be presenting as family and guests are welcome!

Please check out the “Upcoming Events” calendar as well as the detailed articles below for more information regarding:

  • Nothing Bundt Cakes Fundraiser
  • Drone Soccer Regionals
  • Coming Soon! – End of Year Information
  • End of Quarter 3 Dates
  • Yearbook Orders
  • Volunteers Needed for Lunch & Recess
  • Thought of the Week

Thank you for your attention to these important issues. As always, feel free to reach out to me with additional questions and concerns!

Sincerely,
Katie
