| Dear Summit Families, Welcome to the 25-26 school year! We are excited for this new journey of learning and growth for and with your students! I am grateful for your trust and belief in our school. Our new address is 845 S Lowell Blvd. Denver CO, 80241, our new phone number is 720-424- 8990. I would like to introduce new staff joining us this year: ELA-S Interventionist Teacher Ms. Zoe Antunez Math HS Teacher Mr. Cristian Lopez Math Fellows Coordinator Mr. Alex Arceo Math Fellow Emilio Gomez ELA-S paraprofessional Damaris Gutierrez We are hoping to see you during our back to school Taquiza today from 12pm to 2pm. Join us in seeing our new building! Important Dates: August 15-Back to school taquiza 12-2pm August 18-1st day of school 8:20am-2:23pm (Early release Monday) A few important updates: We will start classes this Monday at 8:20, students will enter through the North door on West Ohio street. Dismissal for HIgh School will be through the same door they entered in the morning and Middle School will be dismissed through the playground door. Please do not use the front door to drop off students, they will have to walk around to the door on West Ohio street. Van route will not start until the second week of school once Mr. Robinson has the route defined. Bus pick up at the old Summit location will be at 7:45am and a second pick up at 8:05am. As you can predict, moving to a new building has a lot of moving pieces and it will take time for all of us to adapt to the new location and new procedures. Please be patient and make sure you read our student-parent handbook to find our school guidelines and expecations. I look forward to a great school year, please reach out if you have any questions. Kind regards, Mr. Osorio | ||||||||
