It’s the week before Christmas, and we are feeling the excitement in the classroom!
Our class holiday party will be on Thursday, December 18th. We still have a few slots open so please sign up here! That morning, we will also have our festive holiday sock exchange, and the flyer is still attached here with all the details! As a reminder, there is no school on Friday, December 19th, as it is a teacher work day!
We only have two weeks left in Quarter 2, I can't believe we already have made it half way through the year. Quarter 2 will officially close on January 9th, and grades will be posted the following week on January 16th. In class, we are wrapping up our Ancient Rome unit this week! When we return from break, we will begin Unit 5: Light and Sound. As a fun culminating activity to celebrate all we’ve learned about Ancient Rome, we will have our annual Rome Day on Friday, January 16th. Watch out for a sign-up genius coming about this.
When we return from winter break, Monday, January 5th is a teacher work day, so students will return on Tuesday, January 6th! I am looking forward to spending this last week of 2025 with your students and can’t wait to jump into 2026 with them!
- Parents please connect to our Class Dojo HERE - this is how to monitor your students behavior (positive and negative)
- Please send your student to school with a filled water bottle as well as a couple healthy snacks for the day. Reminder that we are a nut-free classroom.
- Colorado weather changes hourly so please pack your student appropriate attire for the day.
- We will have PE every Monday - and some Fridays. Please have your student wear tennis shoes for those days.
This week we have TECH all week.

Meet Mrs. Mindy Stump
I am delighted to begin my tenth year at Aspen View Academy this year! I have been teaching for 18 years. I received my bachelors degree in Elementary Education at John Brown University and my Masters of Education at Cedarville University.
It is a privilege to be a teacher. I became a teacher to impact the lives of students. My first goal is to provide a safe and caring environment for your child. Secondly, I strive to provide a learning experience where each student is able to meet their full potential as students and future leaders. Thirdly, I want to partner with you to create a team that works for the best interests of your child.
It is crucial to a child's success to have support and encouragement from their families, school, and community. I appreciate your involvement and support this year as we work together. I look forward to an excellent 2025-2026 school year!
