Message from Principal

Dear Skyline Families,

Spring Break starts on Monday! We hope you enjoy a well-deserved break and quality time with your families. When we return, there will be just nine weeks left in the school year—only seven and a half for our seniors. Let’s make every moment count, stay focused, and finish strong!

It’s been inspiring to see our students working hard, staying engaged, and making the most of every opportunity to grow. Their dedication and enthusiasm are truly remarkable! Let’s keep up the momentum, push through the remainder of the year, and come back ready to finish the year strong. We’re proud of our Falcons—let’s make it happen!

Robotics Teams Compete at State: Two of our incredible robotics teams, Roughly a Dozen Bees and WaveLength, have qualified for the state tournament at Erie High School this Saturday! Please join us in celebrating their dedication, innovation, and hard work in representing Skyline. Congratulations to these talented students:

Roughly a Dozen Bees: Milo Glass, Jacob Miracle and Sam Taylor

WaveLength: Benji Eamon, AJ Fruvellhoff, Abdullah Haseeb, Jackson Holliness, Mason Stromquist and Matt Wittrock

Spring Athletics Kick Off: Our spring sports season is officially underway! With baseball, girls’ soccer, girls’ tennis, ultimate disc, and track in full swing, our student-athletes are training hard and ready to compete. Let’s cheer them on and wish them the best of luck for a fantastic season!

Save the Date:  Our spring play is almost here! Our talented students have been working hard and can’t wait to take the stage for Little Shop of Horrors. Mark your calendars and join us for an incredible performance on April 3rd & 4th at 7 PM, and April 5th at 2 PM and 7 PM. You won’t want to miss it!

Did you know?: The St. Vrain Valley School District has secured an impressive $71 million in highly competitive grants—directly reinvesting in our schools to enhance learning and opportunities for our students!

Registration reminders: This is an exciting time as we get ready for the 2025-2026 school year, and we are here to support you every step of the way. Below are important dates and reminders to guide you and your student through the process.  

• May 15, 2025: Student Schedules Released.  Mark your calendars! Student schedules for the 2025-2026 school year will be available starting May 15, 2025.

Attendance Update:  Attendance is essential for our students’ success. Starting this week, we will update our tardy policy: students with 5 tardies in a week will receive lunch detention. This averages to one tardy per day. These updated expectations were shared with students during advisory classes prior to break. Thank you for your support in reinforcing the importance of being on time!

Prom & Attendance:  We want every student to have the opportunity to attend prom! To be eligible for the Junior/Senior Prom on Saturday, April 12th students must have no more than five days of unexcused absences (four period absences equal one full day) and/or 25 tardies starting from January 24, 2025, in the 12 weeks leading up to prom.

Please remember that absences must be excused within 48 hours. If you have any questions or concerns, students should reach out to their assistant principal as soon as possible. Let’s work together to make prom a night to remember!

Thank you for your continued partnership as we step into the new year with inspiration and purpose. Together, we’re creating a bright future for every student.  Please remember to turn your clocks forward this weekend one hour as daylight savings time comes to an end.

Sincerely,
Anthony Barela
