Message from the Principal

We are looking forward to the 2010 -2011 school year. Pikes Peak Prep is excited to announce our new extended day school hours for the 2010-2011 school year. The traditional school day will be from 7:50-3:30. Between 3:00 - 3:30 students will work with their homeroom teachers on getting started on homework assignments with assistance, correcting previous assignments, independent study for credit recovery and academic enrichment. On Mondays and Thursdays from 3:30 - 4:00, any student who does not have 80% mastery in any subject area will stay for free tutoring.

Wednesday is our Club day. Clubs begin at 3:30 and conclude at 4:00. We have a wide variety of offerings including Rock Climbing, Chess Club, French and Spanish Club, Student Council, Yearbook, Science Club, Technology, Gardening, Yoga, and Drama Club.

The schedule for extracurricular sports activities of basketball, cheerleading, and volleyball will be given out in August.

On Tuesday and Friday, student dismissal time is 3:30. Please make arrangements for your child to be picked up at this time, if they do not ride our bus to daycare.

Pikes Peak Prep continues to bus students at no cost to either the Hillside Community Center or the Boys and Girl’s Club for parents who purchase day care.

We look forward to seeing all our children on the first day of school, August 16th. Daily breakfast is at 7:30 and students need to be in their classrooms when instruction begins at 7:50.

Our Family Open House is at 6:30 on August 16th, so mark your calendars. You will be able to meet the teachers and find out what your children will be learning during this school year.
Thank you for entrusting your children to us. We value and appreciate this trust. We will communicate with you frequently to keep you informed. Teachers send home weekly progress reports in your child’s planner. Please feel free to contact the teachers or me at anytime with questions. We are all a team working together for your child’s success.

Enjoy the rest of your summer and see you soon.

Sincerely,
Dr. Patricia Arnold
