Thnak you

A huge thank you to our amazing PTO for organizing such a fun and festive Trick-or-Treat Street! The decorations, activities, and treats made it a night to remember for our students and families. We also want to extend our gratitude to all the families who came out to support the event—your participation and enthusiasm help make our school community so special.

Soar awards

After our field trip to Miller Farms, we will hold our first SOAR Awards Assembly of the 2025–26 school year on Friday, October 31st at 2:45 PM.

As always, all members of our community are warmly invited to join us in celebrating our students' achievements.

Volunteer opportunities

NEW Volunteer Needs

The best news is our enrollment in Super Monday classes has grown quite a bit in the last two weeks creating a need for an extra set of hands in Art to help our creative learners.

  • Enrichment/foundational skills activities 30 minutes a day from 3-3:30. 

  • Help in Super Monday Art classes 2-3 hours on Monday afternoons.

Of course we are still wanting to add to our lunch time and parking lot volunteers

  • Lunch supervision is about an hour a day from 11:30-12:30 

  • Crossing guard is about 20-30 minutes a day from 3:15-3:45.

Snow day header

REPEATED

As we enter our snowy months JACCC’s procedure for snow days and late starts is as follows. If all Jeffco schools are closed JACCC is also closed. If Jeffco Mountain Schools are closed JACCC is also closed. If all Jeffco Schools or just mountain schools call a late start we will run a modified schedule from 10:30am-3:30pm. You should also receive a phone call and email with closure/delay information. It is always a good idea to pay attention to the local news and check social media or the JACCC website if you are ever unsure of whether we have a delayed schedule or a snow day. 

Parent night header

REPEATED

We will be hosting our annual Prospective Parent Night on Monday, November 17th at 6:00 PM.

If you know any families with incoming preschoolers, new kindergarteners, or students at any grade level who may be interested in joining JA CCC, please invite them to attend.

This event is a great opportunity for families to:

  • Learn more about our school

  • Meet our teachers

  • Tour the classrooms

  • Ask questions

First-round choice enrollment begins December 2nd, so we encourage interested families to attend and get the information they need.

Snacks header

REPEATED

Please remember to send a snack or two with your child each day. While we have a small supply of emergency snacks in the office, many students are requesting them daily, sometimes more than once. We're happy to help occasionally, but we aren't able to provide multiple snacks each day.

Don't forget about our Miller Farms on Thursday, October 31st! Students will get to explore the farm, and enjoy some festive Halloween fun. ALL students including our Homebased Super Monday students are invited to come.

All students (except Pre-K) and chaperones will ride the bus to and from Miller Farms. Buses will leave the school at 9:15 AM and return by 1:30 PM. Please reach out to your student's homeroom teacher if you'd like to help volunteer.

✅ Waiver Required
To attend the field trip, all students must have a completed waiver. This waiver is required by Miller Farms. If you haven't done so already, please be sure to fill out and return these forms by October 28th.
We’re looking forward to a great day at the farm! Thank you for your help in making sure everyone is ready to go!

Halloween heading

In keeping with JA policy, students can not wear costumes to school on Halloween. Instead, we’ll celebrate with a Spirit Day on October 30th, and we’re looking forward to our all-school field trip to Miller Farms on October 31st!

Weather header

REPEATED

The weather is starting to change into fall which means colder mornings and some more rainy days  We always love giving kids the opportunity to play outside on snowy, rainy days even on cold days. They also love to be outside, I had many students beg me to take them outside last week on the rainy Tuesday. Please make sure your child is dressed for Colorado mountain weather each day.  If you are in need of cold weather gear for your child(ren) please call the office, we will keep these requests confidential.

Warm regards,
