Our Spring Book Fair will be April 12-25th.

Dear Students, Parents and Staff of Florida Mesa Elementary School:
Durango School district 9-R would like to share the lead results sampled in March 2021 and ensure you that the drinking water provided meets state and federal standards. Ten sites are required to be tested at the school by the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment every six months. All the results were well below the action level of 15 ppb.

Join 9-R Board of Education members tomorrow, April 7, 2021, from 8-9, to have an informal conversation about how everything is going for you and your student. The meeting will be on Zoom, and a live interpreter will be available.

Spirit Week - Week of April 5th

9-R is encouraging families to register for preschool and kindergarten for the 2021/22 school year as soon as possible. It is vital to ensure staffing and program availability to all of those who need the services. Registration is open and families are encouraged to register ASAP. The district preschool program is licensed to serve 16 students in a class, and currently the district is making budgetary and staffing decisions based on how many classes it needs next year.

Please take a few moments to provide feedback to the 9-R District Accountability Advisory Committee in their annual survey. Please complete the survey by April 23, 2021.

On March 14, 2021, 9-R was notified by San Juan Basin Public Health (SJBPH) that an individual at Florida Mesa Elementary was positive with COVID-19, causing a cohort to quarantine. The school and the district are working proactively with the SJBPH to make the appropriate notifications and next steps for those who may have been in close contact with this individual.

Understand the current program. Offered feedback on the proposed goals for the upcoming four-year grant cycle. Thursday, March 25, 2021 from 5:30-6:30 pm via Zoom.
