Attention Akron Ram Fans:
The JV football games scheduled with Caliche tomorrow (October 26th) and Dayspring the following Monday (November 2nd) have been cancelled.

The following images contain information for the Caliche football game this Friday, October 23rd. Refer to these images before attending the game.



Attention: Ram Football Players, Families, and Fans
Through discussion between RE-1 Valley School District including Caliche Schools and Akron administration about visiting fan attendance for the football game on Friday, a decision was made to allow 2 fans per Akron football player. Players will be distributing their 2 tickets to their family members. The expectation for all fans is that masks will be worn at all times and social distancing guidelines will be followed. The guidelines require 6 feet between non-family members. These are very trying times for all involved and we appreciate Caliche Schools working with us to allow a limited amount of our fans into the game. Being able to participate in athletics and watch our kids play is something that should not be taken lightly during this pandemic, please do your part to make sure we can continue to compete. We are excited to be playing football this Friday night. GO RAMS!

Please check your email and/or ALMA for information regarding remote learning for grades 9th-12th. Please contact us if you have any questions.

Parents and Guardians,
Please check your email for directions to sign up for Parent-Teacher Conferences next week.
Mrs. Anderson and Mr. Randel

HS Football Parents/Players
Information is coming from CHSAA about Fall/Spring Football. We would like to meet with HS Football parents and players tonight at 6:30 PM at the baseball field to discuss our options. Details are still coming out about the two HS Football seasons and what the guidelines look like. I know this is a quick turnaround but would like to get information into your hands before making a decision.
Thanks

Parents/Guardians,
This is the last call for eligible families (those receiving free or reduced price meals in the 2019/2020 School year) to apply for state P-EBT benefits. Applications are due on Wednesday, September 23rd. When filling out this application you will need your student(s) State ID or SAISID, to get this number please contact Meghan Camacho at 970-345-2266 or m.camacho@akronrams.org
For more information about this program please visit: https://www.colorado.gov/pacific/cdhs/p-ebt. If you have further questions, please contact pebt2020@state.co.us and a representative will respond.
In May of 2020 the State of Colorado approved to provide P-EBT benefits for eligible families. Families with students that were eligible for free or reduced-price meals during the 19-20 school year (or were newly eligible within the months of March, April or May) could receive up to $279 per eligible child! These monies are intended to supplement the amount of meals the student would have received should their school had been in session during school closures
due to COVID-19.
Thank You,
Meghan Camacho
This institution is an equal opportunity provider.

Parents/Guardians,
The United States Department of Agriculture has extended its program of free summertime breakfast and lunch for any child that is age 1-18. The program started, Tuesday, September 9, 2020, and will end on December 31, 2020.
What this means is that any student that attends school in preschool through 12th grade can eat both BREAKFAST and LUNCH for FREE.
This is a great opportunity for your child to try the different meals that we serve here at school. I hope that you will take advantage of this opportunity. You can find our menu on the AkronRams app or at akronrams.net.
For those of you that have already paid for meals, we can carry that balance forward to when we have to start charging meals again in January. If your child owes for meals served previously we will be sending home and emailing out negative balances. Please try to utilize this time to catch up on their balance.
Meals that were served up until now were full pay unless you are on free or reduced meals.
If you have any questions feel free to contact Meghan Camacho at 970-345-2266.
