Dear Families,

We have recently identified an issue affecting calls to the school from cell phones. To ensure your call connects successfully, you must dial the area code (719) before the school's number.

Without the area code, some cell phone carriers may block the call from going through, mistakenly flagging our automated answering system as a robocall or potential fraud. If you have experienced difficulty reaching the school from your cell phone in the past, this is likely the reason.

Please save 719-454-1111 in your contacts to avoid any connection issues.

Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Let your voice be heard!
