Greetings Mountain Lyons,
Happy Thursday! We’re rolling right along, and yesterday’s Late Start was a blast. High School leaders ran One Fish, Two Fish (teamwork + bean bag smuggling!) and All Aboard (tarp shrinking challenge), while other groups worked in the park, the St. Vrain river, our school garden, and the Redstone museum. A great kick-off to this year’s community-based projects!
A few key announcements to share:
- Academic Celebration
Next Friday, September 12th at 8:00 a.m. (right after the bell), we’ll gather on the playground to celebrate student growth and achievement. The event will run about 20–25 minutes for grades 1–5, and yes, there will be a quick dance party! We’re also looking for a parent volunteer to join us as our Mountain Lyon Mascot (we have a costume:)—let us know if you’re interested. - Leadership St. Vrain
We are looking for parents to join Leadership St. Vrain, a monthly meeting where families can engage in high-level district conversations. If you’d like to learn more, here is a link to the Leadership St. Vrain website with details and dates! - Coffee with the Principal
Mark your calendars for Wednesday, October 1st at 8:00 a.m. for our first Coffee with the Principal. Depending on interest, I hope to host these monthly as topic-based conversations with families. We’ll share a flyer in upcoming announcements. - Stay Connected
Thank you to everyone already following us on social media! We post weekly updates on Facebook, Instagram, and X. If you haven’t yet, join us—we’d love to grow our online community.
Wishing you a wonderful rest of the week, and as always, never hesitate to reach out.
Yours in education,
Principal Moore
