Today I will be safe * Today I will be respectful * Today I will be responsible * I will make today a great day, because that’s the Red Hawk Way!
Hug-N-Go: I want to thank everyone who is following The Red Hawk Way in all we do on campus! Being safe, respectful, responsible and walking with integrity is who we are and what we do every day at Red Hawk! It is important that our students see all of US doing the same thing! With Hug-N-Go, please continue to meet our expectations in setting a great example for all of our kids! As a gentle reminder, Hug-N-Go will requires patience. If you are in a hurry, Hug-N-Go is not for you that particular day! Some other reminders are to remain in the single file line of cars from the time you drive on campus until you exit campus. Please do not pass, drive around, overtake or in any way get out of the single file line. I also want to thank all of you for keeping our communication in the spirit of the Red Hawk Way! We love our positive, fun, friendly and inviting climate and culture at Red Hawk, and each of you play a major role in that! Please reach out to Mr. Garcia if you have any questions.
Communicating with Students During the School Day: As a reminder, our protocol at Red Hawk for students communicating with parents/guardians and parents/guardians communicating with students is very streamlined and simple; everything goest through the school office or a teacher! That’s right, if your kiddo needs to communicate with you all they need to do is let an adult know and we will assist them in making that call. If you need to communicate with your kiddo while they are at school, simply call the office at (303) 774 – 2700 and one of our amazing office team will get your message to your student. If you need to talk to them, we will have them call you right away! What this means is that there is no need for cell phones, watches, or any other communication devices to be utilized during school hours. In fact, these devices can disrupt the learning for our students and other students in the class. Thank you for following our communication expectation! Please reach out to Mr. Garcia if you have any questions.
