Dear Aspen View Academy Families,
As we reach the halfway point of the school year, the PTO would like to express our heartfelt thanks for your continued support and involvement. Together, we have accomplished so much, and we are excited to share some highlights and updates with you.
Highlights from the First Half of the Year:
Boosterthon: Our Wolf Runs were a huge success! Thanks to your participation, we raised over $125,000! Part of these funds will be used to build our greenhouse, which we hope will be completed by the end of the summer. We are currently working with our contractor and the town of Castle Rock to obtain the necessary permits. Look for more updates as we move forward!
Trunk or Treat: Our 3rd annual Trunk or Treat event was a hit, with over 400 attendees!
Veterans Day Assembly: Through our Pay for Dress of choice donations, we donated $1,200 to the American Legion Harry C Miller Post 1187.
Volunteer Appreciation Event: Over 200 people joined us at Parker Ice Trail for our mid-year event. It was such a fun time connecting with our school community while ice skating!
Teacher and Staff Scholarships: We granted 15 scholarships to teachers and staff, supporting a variety of needs including poster makers, sewing machines, speech and language materials, special education resources, and more.
Upcoming Events:
Spirit Days:
January 15th: Shake Shack
February 11th: Nothing Bundt Cakes

Spring Soiree: Save the date for our spring fundraiser on March 29th at the Douglas County Fairgrounds. Dust off your boots and grab your cowboy hats! Join us as we raise funds to complete our rock wall build! We can't wait to see you there for a fun and memorable evening!
