This Week in Trojan Athletics (1/8/24)
Good Evening Trojan Families and Happy New Year!
We are excited to welcome back our students for the first day of Spring Semester on Tuesday, January 9th. We hope everyone had wonderful holidays and a good start to the new year.
The South Conejos School Board of Education will conduct a Regular Board Meeting on the 9th day of January 2024 at 6 PM. The meeting will be held in the Secondary Flex area.
Family Crew Conversation Starter: During a family dinner or gathering ask everyone to answer the question - what are three things that you’re good at doing that took a lot of hard work and practice?
Family Crew Weekend Activity: Start a Family Journal
Start a family journal to bring everyone closer. Designate one night a week to make a new entry, and take turns on who gets to write the information. Add personal observations on the events of the past week, and comment on people and places impacting your lives. If a relative from the past has left behind a diary or journal, pass it around, read it aloud, and discuss the events and people that shaped the writer's life.
Trojan Crew,
Please take a moment to read the first newsletter from our School Resource Officer (SRO), Sgt. R.L. Noga. If you see him at our school or in our community, including other Conejos County schools, give him a big Trojan hello!
South Conejos School District would also like to thank the Conejos County Sheriff's Department for making this happen for our community. We look forward to this partnership and are excited about this resource for our students, staff, and parents.
"TROJANS...ALL IN, ALL THE TIME!"
Elementary Families,
This is a reminder to please drop of your K-5 students between 5:30-5:45 for the concert tonight! We hope to see you all there!
We know it is hard finishing up school right before Winter Break, so your presence is a present! Come to school and find a mini tree hidden in the building and get the chance to participate in Principal Mansheim's Present Punch!
Good Afternoon Trojan Families,
We have lots of exciting events this week and we hope to see you there! December 19th will be the elementary holiday concert at 6:00 pm. December 20th will be the preschool holiday concert and dinner at 6:00 pm. Students will be dismissed December 21st at 2:00 pm. We want to wish everyone a warm and wonderful winter break!
Family Crew Weekend Activity: Penny for your Thoughts.
Collect pennies or other coins that were minted in different years, but none earlier than the youngest family member's birth year. Have each person pick up a coin and share something memorable that happened in the year printed on it.
Currently all phone lines are down. We are working to get phone lines up and running again. Thank you all for your patience.
Trojan Families,
We are having issues with our front desk phones. Please call 719-376-7021 instead. Thank you.
Good Evening Trojan Families,
We will have a two hour delay tomorrow, December 14th, due to weather conditions. Bus routes will start at 9:00 am. Drop-off will be between 9:30-10:00 am. Tomorrow's high school basketball game has also been postponed. Please travel safely and stay warm in our first snow storm of the year!
The South Conejos School Board of Education will conduct a Special Board Meeting on the 14th day of December 2023, at 6 PM. The meeting will be held in the Secondary Flex area.
Families here is a way to order free covid tests for your household. Since the end of the pandemic was announced, school districts no longer receive free covid tests.
Get Four Free At-Home COVID-19 Tests This Fall
Every home in the U.S. is eligible to order an additional 4 free at-home tests beginning November 20. If you did not order tests this fall, you may place two orders for a total of 8 tests.
Your order of COVID tests is completely free – you won’t even pay for shipping.

Trojan Athletics Weekly Update 12-11-23
Our Upper Elementary Students had a blast today on the Holiday Train Ride thanks to our friends at Cumbres & Toltec Railroad! We also want to give a special thanks to our own high school student, Antonio Velasquez, for teaching all our elementary students about the history of our beloved train!
Family Crew Weekend Activity: Go on a “See-Where-it-Leads” Adventure!
Get in the car and at each corner let students take turns telling the driver which way to turn. See if you can do a kind dead for someone along the way.

Head Start Families,
Our Conejos building briefly went into lockout due to gunshots heard in the area, but the lockout was quickly lifted after an all clear notice from the Sheriff's office.
A reminder that lockout is when no one can enter or leave the building until the surrounding area is considered safe and secure. Thank you to our Conejos Sheriff's Office for their quick response.
