School Notes

Important Information:

  • Asbury’s 22/23 SY Calendar: Here is Asbury’s 22/23 school year calendar. As you can see, we have one release day per month and all the release days are backed up to a weekend or a long weekend.

Announcements:

  • DPS’ Library Services will be hosting the second annual SUMMER OF SORA from June 6th – August 12th! Similar to last year, every student who checks out an eBook or audiobook in Sora is eligible to win the random weekly drawing of ten winners. Weekly drawing winners will be announced every Monday, and each winner will receive an Under Armour sackpack and a new book. THAT’S A TOTAL OF 100 WINNERS! Three grand prize winners will also be randomly selected on August 12th, and each grand prize winner will receive a Kindle e-reader! (SO, for those competitive and prize-lovin’ types out there, the more eBooks and/or audiobooks students check out each week, the better chance they have to win!) See the attached flyer. SORA Flyer (Spanish)
  • Health Office Update: We wanted to share that COVID Cases are on the rise once again in CO. We are also seeing an uptick in other viral and bacterial illnesses. These types of illnesses are somewhat expected coming off of a year-plus of wearing masks. We want to continue to encourage you to be mindful of symptoms and be diligent about keeping kids home if there are concerns. Here is a helpful guide to check if you are unsure about whether or not your child should stay home: How Sick Is Too Sick? We do encourage students that are not feeling well to wear a mask while around others.
