6th Grade Crews at the Denver Art Museum on Fieldwork

News from Ms. Trena:

Dear REMS Families, 

Let the countdown to Winter Break begin! We are eagerly anticipating all of the joy and celebration that the next week at REMS will bring!  As we close out our first semester, we wish to offer our families a deep sense of gratitude for your partnership and contributions to our school Crew.  Your countless volunteer hours, donations, words of encouragement, and trust continue to contribute to the thriving culture of Crew at REMS.  

As we continue into the next semester, let us as a crew focus on trust—a cornerstone of our school community. Trust allows us to foster meaningful relationships, encourage collaboration, and create a safe space for our students to explore, learn, and grow.

As parents, teachers, and staff, let’s continue to model trust by listening, supporting one another, and keeping our commitments. By demonstrating these values, we help our students understand the importance of trust in their own lives and interactions. Thank you for entrusting us with your children. 

Let’s continue to build stronger connections together!  

With gratitude,
