It has been a joy to welcome back our students. Many students I talked to expressed that they were really happy to be back at school to be with their teachers and friends. Please continue to have conversations with your child about wearing their masks and maintaining distance from others. The consistent messaging in regards to safety from school and home is crucial to keeping everyone safe and schools open.
Thank you to our amazing PTA for the generous donations of lanyards for masks and a tent to support outdoor education. Our school partnership with the PTA helps ensure our students have adequate support and resources for the school year. Don’t forget to donate to the Friends of Cory to help fund our wonderful programs at Cory!
Please be sure your child is dressed appropriately for the weather. The weather is starting to get colder. Even on warmer days, we all know how quickly the weather can change here in Colorado. Always assume it is an outside day and make sure your child is prepared with boots, gloves, a hat, and a coat. We appreciate your help with this.
Updated mask guidance:
Spirt Week next week!
Have a wonderful weekend and please stay warm! As always, please feel free to reach out with any questions, concerns or suggestions. Best,

Cory PTA’s annual giving campaign, Friends of Cory, is off and running. Thank you to those of you who have already contributed! If you have not yet contributed, please consider making your gift today.
Your generosity ensures our students at Cory Elementary have access to many resources including full-time Specials teachers like Ms. Ferguson, our Music Teacher. This year, Ms. Ferguson has created a virtual classroom where Cory students can explore and develop musical skills remotely. It is a wonderful resource outlet for students to further engage in the music curriculum. We are so fortunate to have a highly qualified, committed Music Teacher like Ms. Ferguson at Cory! It wouldn’t be possible without your support of Friends of Cory.
Please make your tax-deductible gift today. Your donation helps make Music and all the Specials at Cory possible. Thank You!

Ester’s is graciously donating 10% of all sales all day long, 11-close, to our Cory PTA! With plenty of outside dining, there is plenty of elbow room to accommodate our social distancing needs! Dine in, or take out some delicious treats! Take some time off from cooking and enjoy lunch and/or dinner out. Hope to see you then!
