Announcements

 

Traffic Safety

As the academic year begins, busy parents and school buses will add to traffic congestion, making school zone safety very important on our campus. Please follow these school guidelines for drop-off and pick up to keep our students and each other safe: 

  • Drivers should obey all traffic laws, including stop signs and allowing the pedestrians the right of way in crosswalks

  • Drivers should drop off students next to the curb and then pull into the left lane to keep the traffic moving

  • Pedestrians should cross at crosswalks and make eye contact with the driver of a car before crossing in front of it

  • Cars should not be parked in the fire lanes for an extended amount of time. 

  • We ask that you only use the fire lane as a "kiss and go" lane, not as parking

Please always remember to be kind and respectful to each other! 

 

Parking Updates

  • The administration has made a decision to number all parking spaces and assign them to teachers and staff. Please do not park in a numbered space in the main parking lot or the parking lot by the cafeteria. Please use the visitor spaces when visiting campus. Thank you for your support and cooperation.

 

Free RTD 

  • RTD will let Denver area youth ride for free ALL year long to school, work, and anywhere. You can find more information regarding this on this article or on RTD’s website. 

 

Infinite Campus Attendance Request Processing

  • Families save time by letting us know that your student is going to arrive later or be absent. Starting this year, DPS families will be able to use their computers or smartphones to know about absences or late arrivals so they can focus on taking care of their children. Guardian of DPS students must have an active DPS Parent Portal account to use this new feature. Visit myportal.dpsk12.org to sign up, or check that your account is ready and active. Directions are available in English or Spanish. Visit the Attendance webpage for more information.

Fundraising

 

ROCKIES COMMUNITY NIGHT!!

College View, we are having a community night fundraiser at Coors Field! Our fundraiser night is in a few weeks on Friday, September 15th, when the Rockies take on the San Francisco Giants. With this fundraiser, our school gets money from every single ticket we sell, and all of the money we earn gets put directly into student activities.

The game is at 6:40pm on Friday, September 15th vs. the San Francisco Giants! Through the school you can order:

  • $6 Upper Level Tickets

  • $20 Lower Level Tickets

  • $22 Parking Passes

Order forms can be picked up and dropped off at the front office in both the Middle School & the High School. I am also going to attach the order form here, so if you would rather print it out yourself, you have that option. All orders must be paid in cash or check! All of the details are also on the attached poster. 

Order forms are due NO LATER than Friday, September 8th!
