Sign the Petition for DSST Noel High School
Before COVID put an end to large gatherings, community members from the Far Northeast, including students, families, and staff, were turning out by the hundreds to show their support for a DSST Noel High School. And yet the Bulldogs at Noel still do not have a clear path to a high school.

Pets of the Week: Best Buddies Stella and Bodie
While we have begun the school year remotely, with empty classrooms and hallways across the network, the work of our school operations team has not gotten any simpler. From coordinating the checkout of nearly 7,000 laptops, to helping ensure that 100% of our students have access to the internet, the Ops team has had their work cut out for them! This week, we’re highlighting Greg Avedikian, Manager of School Operations, and his two dogs Stella and Bodie. Greg is the operations partner for Aurora Science & Tech, College View MS & HS, and Henry MS, and works to help ensure the Front Office teams at those campuses have what they need to make their schools run smoothly, while also planning and coordinating capital construction and maintenance projects with our DPS and APS partners.

Sync Your Google Classroom with Flyer!
You may have noticed a lot of buzz around Flyer and Google Classroom Calendars leading up to and through this first week of school. Not only is Flyer a great tool for communicating with families through broadcast messages and translated two way chats, but there are additional features that make the app a one stop shop for families. One of those features is a calendar integration with Google Classroom calendars. By integrating your Google Classroom calendar ID into your corresponding Flyer groups, any assignment you post on Google Classroom will populate on the Flyer calendar for verified families on the app. When all teachers integrate their calendars, families have a complete picture of all assignments, across all classes, that their students have coming up, all in one place!
