Weekly Parent Update

March 10, 2023

Spring break is next week, and I hope you and your students enjoy the time relaxing and rejuvenating! I look forward to spending time with my family on the ski slopes!

While spring break is an excellent opportunity for students to take a break from their studies, it is also important to remember that the end of the school year is just around the corner. To finish the year strong, students should continue to attend classes, complete assignments on time, and stay engaged in their coursework. This may mean setting aside time each day for studying or asking for help if they struggle with a particular subject.

We recently hosted an informational session about supporting your students and helping them organize their assignments and schedules. You can find the presentation here if you weren't able to attend. We've found that parents working alongside their students to plot the week's work and review assignments is very beneficial!

Thank you for your continued partnership and support as we work together to help your child succeed.

Have a wonderful break!

Warmly,

Cynthia Cox

Executive Director, Leadership Academy of Colorado
