Support Students Experiencing Homelessness
Eighty percent of the support 涩涩影视 can offer students experiencing homelessness comes from community donations. All donations are tax deductible. Please share this message far and wide, and the opportunity to give does not end now, this link will be live throughout the holiday season. For more information about our program and this campaign, visit the McKinney-Vento Homeless web page.
English Language Development
Students enrolled in the 涩涩影视 English Language Development (ELD) program receive instruction based on both the Colorado Academic Standards and Colorado English Language Proficiency frameworks. Several ELD program options include indirect service, direct service, bilingual/dual language (Spanish/English at select schools), and Newcomer.
McKinney-Vento Homeless Education
The McKinney-Vento Act ensures that all students who lack fixed, regular or adequate housing, including unaccompanied homeless youths, are afforded all the same educational opportunities as their peers. The 涩涩影视 Homeless Education program works to remove all educational barriers resulting from their living situation that could hinder their enrollment, attendance or success in school.
Family engagement
The Family Engagement office helps support eligible students and families via our federally-funded Immigrant/Migrant/Refugee Program. We also have a dedicated team of Family Liaisons serving students and families throughout the district to offer additional linguistic and educational resources to students.
After school programs
涩涩影视 provides before and after school care for qualifying students at Title 1 schools and 21st Century Community Learning Center (CCLC) sites throughout the year with the 涩涩影视 After 3 program. We also partner with and for certain programs during the year and in the summer for Camp SOL. Scholarships are available for qualifying students and families.
涩涩影视 retention guidelines
Some teachers or parents/guardians may want to hold a student back a grade for a variety of reasons. 涩涩影视 considers these requests following these guidelines.
Federal programs (Title I)
The (ESSA) of 2015 was enacted to build upon programs established in 2002 by the No Child Left Behind Act. It provides necessary support to all students regardless of race, income, zip code, ability, home language, or background. 涩涩影视 utilizes these federal programs in a number of ways, including Title I funds, one of the largest areas of the ESSA.
