Tiger News
February 23, 2024

Hello Tiger Families!

We had our first home wrestling meet of the season this past week, and our students did so well! We had a HUGE turnout to watch our athletes up against Soaring Heights and Aspen Ridge. It was amazing to feel the energy from our student and parent cheering sections.

We also released the cast list for Anastasia. We have SO MANY talented students who are going to be amazing! We are also looking for stage tech help. If students are interested they can scan the QR codes on the fliers in the hall. The performances are May 3rd, 4th, and 5th.

Also, parents, please take a moment to check out the Recent Updates section of our newsletter each week. This is where a lot of our information is posted.

Colorado Rapids Attendance Reward

We have partnered with the Colorado Rapids to reward and incentivize attendance here at Erie Middle School by giving students who have no more than 2 days missed, from February 26^th – March 15^th, a complimentary ticket to a Colorado Rapids match.  

The Rapids boast one of the most family-friendly and fun game day experiences in town. From celebrating the goals together, to the roar of the stadium crowd, to the hot dogs at halftime, Colorado Rapids games are where memories can be made. Students who qualify will receive a ticket link voucher to redeem their complimentary ticket with purchase of additional discounted tickets. Vouchers will be redeemable for select Spring date, March 30^th or April 20th.

Please reach out to Mr. Tomasek with any questions!

Attendance Tips

Attend Today, Achieve Tomorrow

If your student is absent for a full day, you have 24-48 hours to call in with the reason for the absence, after that it will be marked unexcused. Per board policy, if a student is absent 10 days excused or not, absences will begin to be marked “unexcused” unless previously noted and approved by school administration or there is a doctor’s note provided to the school.

Extended Absences: Please notify the school at least 2 weeks prior to any extended absences via our Google form. You and your student will also need to sign off on our “Extended Absence Form” located in our front office. This form helps students and parents understand how to communicate with teachers and make up schoolwork after the absence.

If you know your student will be absent, tardy or checking out of school please fill out this Google form.

Please provide the school with a note from the doctor, orthodontist, dentist, therapist, or any appointment each time you go.
