You will find some information on parking enforcement from the city of Denver in this weeks Friday folder. Parents continue to park cars in the pick-up only zones immediately surrounding the school. This is a constant stress for the your child's teacher and the support staff assigned to drop-off and pick-up times. Please support us in our efforts to ensure all of the students’ safety and security at these times by remaining in your car on the South side of Yates or parking in a legal parking spot and walking to retrieve your child.

It is essential for students to attend school daily in order to acquire knowledge, skills and confidence. Denison's current attendance dropped this past week to 94%. On an average day, 25-30 students are tardy to school. Parents, guardians and students are all responsible for making sure students are on time and ready to learn. Denison has immediate openings for a 4-hour elementary para and an 8-hour spanish speaking para. If you are interested, please contact the main office.

Some reminders from Families of Denison Montessori: Thank you to everyone who helped make the fall festival such a success.
