This fall, Cotopaxi School is preparing to administer the Healthy Kids Colorado Survey (HKCS), the state’s most comprehensive youth health survey.
The survey covers topics like safety, mental health, relationships, and substance use. Data from the HKCS will help Cotopaxi School identify student needs and track trends in youth health and wellbeing. All Cotopaxi School parents/guardians will receive a permission form and a copy of the survey and can opt their students out of participation. The survey is anonymous. Students are advised to skip any questions that they are not comfortable answering or don’t understand and will not put their name or any other identifying information on the survey.
Questions? Email Debbie Eggleston at deggleston@cotopaxire3.org and visit www.healthykidscolo.org to learn more.



REMINDER: Free dental services coming to the Cotopaxi School on October 29th and 30th.

Dear Parents and Guardians,
I want to sincerely apologize for the transportation error that occurred this morning. Due to a miscommunication, a bus route did not run as scheduled this morning. We understand this caused significant inconvenience for many families and disrupted the start of the school day. Thank you for being flexible, making school a priority and bringing your students this morning. We have found a solution for the PM route and it will be running this afternoon.
Please know that we take full responsibility for this mistake. We are reviewing our communication procedures and will get this cleaned up.
We truly appreciate your patience, understanding, and flexibility as we worked through this situation today. Thank you for your continued support of Cotopaxi Schools. Please reach out if you have any concerns or questions.
Sincerely,
Adam Krick
