For all their hard work and dedication to prepare for the Colorado Measures of Academic Success (CMAS), our Guadalupe Upper (Grades 3-5) Elementary Students and Staff will have a field expedition to the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo, Wednesday, April 22, 2026. This is a great trip for the staff and students to experience, however, it will require an early departure and return outside of the normal school hours. We will depart the school at 06:30 am and return to the school at approximately 6:30 pm. If you are interested in your child participating, download the required permission slip linked below, sign and return by the morning of April 20, 2026.

We want to give a big "Thank You" to everyone who attended and supported our South Conejos School District Family Appreciation Dinner! We appreciate all the volunteers who either donated food items or their time to prepare and serve. Some special mentions go out to Ms. Stephanie Kreps (and Bailee & Katie), Ms. Deb Hoover, Ms. Sandra Pawloski, Ms. Valerie Serrano, Ms. Debbie Arellano-Martinez, and Max & Margie DeHerrera. Without the motivation and positive attitudes, events like this for our families and community members would not be possible. A true CREW effort!





As we begin testing today, we encourage all of our students to stay confident, focused, and give it their all. You've got this! Trojans... All in, All the time!
