Dear Thunder Valley Families,

We love celebrating our students! It was so wonderful to see students and families at our Honor Roll celebration on Friday. Next week on Wednesday, January 28th, we have a PTO meeting in the Library from 5:30-6:30 pm. Come join us and be part of all the great things happening at Thunder Valley!

Parent teacher conferences are right around the corner! The signup information for Meet The Teacher will be going out on Monday, January 26th. Parent Teacher Conferences are February 10th and 11th from 3:50-8:00pm and February 12th from 3:50-5:50 pm. We look forward to seeing our families and connecting with you. If you need assistance navigating Meet The Teacher, please contact Laura at the front office at (303) 833-2456 or email [email protected], so that we can help you.

Just a few reminders. While we have had a mostly mild winter, the weather has shifted recently. Please support your students by having them wear appropriate clothing to school and to dress in layers. Weather permitting, we go outside every day!

We have seen an increase in fast food drop offs at the front office. To help minimize disruptions to the school day, fast food and DoorDash lunch drop-offs are not permitted. A free hot lunch is available to all students each day, and students may always bring a cold lunch from home. Thank you for your understanding and support.

We appreciate your support and involvement in our school community. Please let us know if you need any assistance.

Best wishes,

Catrina Estrada, Principal 

Sandra Vazquez, Assistant Principal 

Matt Romig, Assistant Principal 

Grant Elwood, Dean of Students
