Our school community is invited to join our PTA in celebrating another amazing year at McKinley-Thatcher at their annual Last Day of School celebration on Tuesday, June 3!
Check out the Colorado Foam & Bubbles homepage to see a foam pit in action, and read through their FAQs here!
It is that time of year again! All student medications must go! If you have any medication for your student at school, please plan on picking it up no later than 1:00 pm on Tuesday, June 3. To pick up medications, come to the front office and the school nurse will meet you to sign them out. Colorado’s state guidelines state that medications are not permitted to be sent home with your child. Any medication not picked up by 1:00 PM on June 3 will be destroyed, per DPS policy.
For questions or concerns, please contact our school nurse, Jen, at (720) 424-5606 or Jennifer_Iltis@dpsk12.net. Thank you!
The Denver Health School-Based Health Centers will continue to see DPS students and their siblings for free at certain locations during the summer. The health centers offer free medical and dental care, and are run by Denver Health Nurse Practitioners and Physician Assistants. For more information, check out their website here.
