New Student Handbook
2019-2020
1
Dear New Students and Families,
Congratulations on your acceptance, and welcome to Challenge! We are delighted that
you will be joining us next school year. As you’ll come to know, Challenge is a special place
where our mission is to inspire, empower, and challenge motivated students who are
academically advanced and/or gifted. Our school has a rich culture that supports the growth of all
students academically, socially, and emotionally. We value creativity and innovation, and we
celebrate successes, as well as mistakes and failures, because all offer pathways to learning.
While at Challenge, each child will complete his or her unique journey through eighth
grade supported by the collaborative efforts of their peers, teachers, and parents. Challenge offers
many unique experiences for students, and we want you to feel comfortable navigating
everything the school has to offer. Please use this handbook to help guide you through the
Challenge experience. As additional questions arise, please feel free to ask any staff member at
one of the many events planned to support you:
New Parent Table at Check-In - August 1, 2019
Tissues and Tears - August 15, 2019
New Parent Coffee - August 19, 2019
Back to School Night - August 14, 2019 for grades 5-8 and August 20, 2019 for
grades K-4.
Know that at every level, we are here to help and make this transition as smooth as
possible. We are excited to welcome you to our Challenge community.
Sincerely,
Mr. Noah Tonk
Principal

Acceptance
Transfer paperwork
Attending Challenge requires an intra-district transfer from your child’s home school to ours. We
will take care of the transfer paperwork once you officially accept the offer to attend.
Kindergarten Enrichment Program Enrollment
Students in our kindergarten program also attend a fee-based Kindergarten Enrichment Program
(KEP), which allows our students to be with us for a full day. Students have the benefit of the
same teacher for both kindergarten and KEP, so the learning and experience does not feel
interrupted. Tuition for the KEP program is due monthly and paid online.
Spring
School-Year Calendar
While Challenge generally follows Cherry Creek Schools’ traditional calendar, we do have
different conference days and non-contact days than other Cherry Creek Schools. A copy of the
Challenge calendar is included in this handbook for your reference.
School Start and End Times
For all students, school starts at 8:00 A.M., and concludes at 3:00 P.M. Elementary students line up
on the south side of the building beginning at 7:50 A.M., and middle school students may enter the
main doors at 7:50 A.M. Before and after child care is available for all students who may need it;
please look for the section titled “Wolf Watch” for more information.
Teams
Students in grades 1 through 8 transition through four teams in consecutive two-year groupings.
Elementary students will have the same teacher for two years. In middle school, students have
the same Humanities teacher for two years, and may have other core teachers for consecutive
years as well.
Team A = Kindergarten
Team B = 1st and 2nd Graders
Team C = 3rd and 4th Graders
Team D = 5th and 6th Graders
Team E = 7th and 8th Graders
Teachers
Before school starts, students will receive a welcome letter from their child’s teacher. For
students in kindergarten through 4th grade, this letter will come from their classroom teacher. For
students in 5th through 8th grade, this letter will come from their Connections teacher. At check-in
in August, middle school students will receive their schedule for their remaining classes.

A Day in the Life of…
Team A (Kindergarten)
Team B (Grades 1 & 2)
Team C (Grades 3 & 4)
Team D (Grades 5 & 6)
Team E (Grades 7 & 8)
What does a
typical day
look like?
Students begin their day in Connections,
which is like a morning meeting. Instruction
is organized in blocks for literacy, math,
science, and social studies. Students have a
scheduled recess in addition to their lunch.
Mini-courses are scheduled at the end of the
day.
Students start their day in
Connections followed by five
57-minute periods for their
core classes, and a mini-
course. A 30-minute lunch is
scheduled before 4th period
for Team D, and after 4th
period for Team E.
What does
literacy
instruction
look like?
Students engage in reading and writing
workshops designed to help them meet and
exceed the Common Core English Language
Arts standards.
Students take Humanities,
which is a 2-period class
encompassing Language Arts
and Social Studies standards.
What does
math
instruction
look like?
Math instruction is grouped by ability and aligned to Common Core
Standards. Up through Math 5, we use the Bridges to Mathematics program,
and in Math 6/7 – Geometry, we use the Big Ideas program. In all grade
levels, we enrich and extend learning to meet students’ needs. Elementary
students may have a different math teacher than their homeroom teacher.
What does
science
instruction
look like?
With inquiry as the foundation, students learn
about scientific principles in units of study
aligned to state standards.
The middle school program is
designed to build sequentially
on the basic principles of the
scientific world. Inquiry is
again the foundational belief
system, and is enhanced
through STEM projects and a
Team E Science Fair.
What does
the Spanish
program look
like?
Students have 30 minutes of instruction in
Spanish 4 days a week, every other week. In
elementary, the emphasis is exposure to
vocabulary and culture.
Students begin in Spanish 1A
in 5th grade and complete
Spanish 2 by the time they
finish 8th grade. Spanish is
offered every other day,
alternating with Encore
rotations.

Team A (Kindergarten)
Team B (Grades 1 & 2)
Team C (Grades 3 & 4)
Team D (Grades 5 & 6)
Team E (Grades 7 & 8)
What is
Encore and
when do
students get
to experience
it?
Encore stands for “Enriching the Core” and
consists of a rotation of Art, Music, Physical
Education, Library, and Technology. Grades
K through 4 rotate through each of the Encore
classes.
Students take
a trimester
each of Art,
Music, and
PE that
alternate
every other
day with
Spanish.
Students
choose three
of the
following:
Art, Music,
Technology,
or PE. Each
class runs for
a trimester
and alternates
every other
day with
Spanish.
Where do
students go
before
school?
Students line up, by teacher, on the south side
of the building beginning at 7:50 A.M. At 7:55
A.M., students will be led, by class, into the
building.
Students gather on the east
side of the building and enter
at 7:50 A.M. when the first bell
rings.
Where do I
store my
things during
the day?
Cubbies and coat racks are provided for each
student in the hallway.
Individual lockers and locks
are provided for each student.
The dimensions of the locker
are approximately 9” wide x
33” tall x 13” deep. The
Container Store has the Janus
Shelving System that fits our
lockers.
What does
homework
look like?
Daily reading
and math two
times a week.
Parents are
given options
from which
to choose,
based on
their child’s
needs.
Weekly
homework is
assigned.
Daily homework and long-
term projects are assigned, as
needed.
School Supplies
School supply lists are posted on our website in May. Families may purchase supplies through
EduKit, or they may purchase them independently.
For middle school, additional personal supplies may be needed and/or wanted. A binder may be
helpful, and can be chosen based on a child’s preferences and individual needs for organization.
A calculator may be needed for math, and teachers will tell parents about recommended models
at the beginning of school.
Summer Reading
All students are required to complete summer reading assignments. The requirements are posted
on our website in May.
5
Parents may want to do their own summer reading to become familiar with some of the language
and philosophies we are adopting at Challenge. Suggested titles include:
Mindset: The New Psychology of Success by Carol Dweck
How to Raise an Adult: Break Free of the Overparenting Trap and Prepare Your Kid for
Success by Julia Lythcott-Haims
The Gift of Failure by Jessica Lahey
Drive: The Surprising Truth About What Motivates Us by Daniel Pink
Check-In
All students are required to attend check-in on August 1, 2019. Check-in times will be assigned
according to last name. Students will have their school picture taken, learn about clubs and
activities, and complete a hearing screening, if required. Parents will have an opportunity to
complete all paperwork, turn in Immersion driving paperwork, buy lunch credits, pay fees for the
yearbook and activities, and sign up for Wolf Watch, if needed. PTCO will be there to help
families learn how to record volunteer hours, explain fundraising options, sell Challenge spirit
wear, and collect money for the Howler (school directory) and classroom party fees. Students
will be able to walk around, find their classroom(s) and become familiar with the school.
More information on check-in will be emailed to families and posted on our website in June.
Transportation
As a commuter school, many families are interested in alternative transportation options.
Carpool
We are pleased to partner with Schoolpool, a program to help parents get their students to/from
school. It’s free and there is no obligation to participate. Schoolpool is a service of Way to Go, a
federally funded program of the Denver Regional Council of Governments (DRCOG).
How Does Schoolpool Work?
Create an account and register your household address or intersection here:
https://mywaytogo.org/s/schoolpool-chal9659lenge (To maintain the highest level of
privacy and security, this link is the only way for Challenge School participants to
register.)
Add comments to indicate special requests or preferences, such as “can provide morning
rides in exchange for afternoon rides,” “student is in after-school actives,” or “looking for
a walk buddy in the mornings.”
Find and contact interested Challenge School families in your neighborhood or along
your drive to/from school.
Challenge School has partnered with Way to Go to offer this program to our parents as a free
service with the goal of reducing traffic congestion and minimizing the stress of getting children
to and from school. Rest assured, your information will only be shared with participating
Challenge School families. No one else will ever see your information, unless you elect to share
your information with families at other schools.
6
The Schoolpool secure mapping service can be used for trip planning or emergency trips, and is
a great resource to meet nearby families for other reasons such as play-dates and baby sitters.
The more families that register, the more likely you are to find good matches. Contact Way to
Go at 303-458-7665 or [email protected] for assistance.
Information is provided for your use only. Challenge School and Way to Go do not run
background checks, confirm valid driver’s licenses or assess insurance coverage on participants.
Potential users are advised to screen participants to their personal satisfaction and check their
own insurance coverage for carpooling to ensure that they are covered under these voluntary
arrangements. No drivers, vehicles or insurance are provided.
Southeast Aurora/Centennial Bus Service
Privately chartered bus service from Centennial/Southeast Aurora has run successfully for the
past ten school years. The kids love the bus and the parents love not making the drive!
Students riding the bus live primarily in the 80013, 80015 and 80016 zip codes.
The 2019-20 school bus is already full, but we are keeping a list of waiting families. If you
would like your child to be on the waiting list, please send an email to
[email protected]. Include in the message your name, the name(s) and grade(s) of
your child(ren), what type of service you are interested in (i.e., mornings only, afternoons only,
round trip), your phone number and your email address. If you are interested in round trip
service, please also indicate if you would like to be notified about any one way seats that may
become available before a round trip seat becomes available
.
The estimated cost for the next school year is $4.00 for one-way and $7.00 for round trip.
ALPs, 504s, and IEPs
If your child has an ALP, 504, and/or IEP plan, our staff will have access to it through our
district database. Please feel free to communicate with your child’s teacher once school starts if
something comes up regarding your child’s needs before your annual review.
Medical Needs
Challenge is staffed every day with a registered nurse. If your child has specific medical needs
related to asthma, allergies, medication, etc., please complete the relevant forms when you
update your child’s information this summer at my.cherrycreekschools.org.
Wolf Watch
Wolf Watch is the name of our Before and After School Program, which is a state-licensed,
Qualistar-approved child care program. Please see the flyers in the back of this handbook for
additional information.
Volunteer Service Requirement
Challenge families commit to support the school with 25 hours of service per school year. There
are many ways to attain hours, both during and outside the school day. The PTCO has volunteer
coordinators who publicize needs and help connect parents with projects. If you find you are
7
having a hard time completing your hours, please reach out to your child’s teacher, school
administration, or one of the PTCO board members for suggestions and assistance. We recognize
that our families are busy. Our goal is to help provide a variety of options to earn service hours in
a way that is meaningful and does not create an unnecessary burden.
Challenge PTCO
The PTCO welcomes you to Challenge. PTCO stands for Parent Teacher Community
Organization, and its purpose is to assist in attaining the highest level of education and welfare
for the Challenge student body through the cooperative efforts of the faculty and staff, the Cherry
Creek School District community, and parents. We are here to support our students, staff, and
parents in numerous ways to include providing classroom grants, offering community building
events, holding monthly meetings, and providing fundraising opportunities to meet the unique
needs of our school. Tracking Volunteer Hours: We ask that parents log their volunteer hours online, and will have
more information on how to do that in August. Fundraising: Throughout the school year, we have several big fundraising events that help us
raise money to help keep our classroom sizes small and other instructional resources. We also
have various smaller fundraisers that go towards Team Funds and General Funds. Feel free to contact us with questions or concerns: [email protected]
August
First Day of School
Kindergarten Thursday, August 15
Grades 1-4 Wednesday, August 14
Grades 5-8 Monday, August 12
Students in kindergarten through 4th grade will gather on the south side of the school, locate their
teacher, who will be holding a sign with their name on it, and line up by them. Teachers will then
lead students into their classrooms. Parents are asked to remain outside the building as the
teachers are walking students into the building to begin their classroom routine.
Middle school students will enter the building at 7:50 A.M., store their belongings in their locker,
and then head to their first period class. Teachers understand that the first day can be filled with
excitement and anxiety and they are prepared to support each child through the transition. If you
have questions or forms, go to the Main Office.
School supply kits purchased through EduKit will be delivered directly to the classroom, and
students don’t need to bring anything to school. If students purchased supplies independently,
they should bring them on the first day.
8
Security and The Main Office The Main Office is open from 7:45 A.M. to 4:00 P.M. daily. For the security of our students and
staff, all doors of the school are locked at all times. To enter the school, press the button on the
exterior box that reads Main Office. Anyone entering the school must check in and receive an
identification badge that must be worn throughout the building. Bring your driver’s license with
you on your first entry into the school.
Parking Lots
Challenge has three parking lots: The East Lot, the Circle Lot, and the West Lot.
The East Lot is the main parking lot. If you are dropping off your child, you may use the drop-
off lane along the school sidewalk. You may not park your car or get out of your car in the drop-
off lane. If you would like to park your car to walk your child to class or just to help them get out
of the car, please use the parking spaces. When picking up your child after school, you may park
in the parking lot, or use the drop-off lane if space is available and you stay in your car. Please
pay attention to the directions of the security guard and parent volunteers to keep our students
safe and traffic moving. A map showing the flow of traffic is included at the end of the
handbook.
The Circle Lot is an extension of the East Lot and is available for families to use.
The West Lot is our carpool lot and is restricted to those families who applied for permits to use
the lot. Permits are granted to carpools that accommodate five or more students. Applications are
included in the check-in paperwork.
In all cases, please do not park along curbs unless no parking spaces are available. If you must
park along the curbs, please remain in your car.
Connections
Connections builds community among students. Elementary students start their day in
Connections with their classroom teacher. Middle school students will have Connections first
thing in the morning and will have the same Connections teachers in grades 5 through 8. In
addition to community-building, students have lessons in bully-proofing, safety, and executive
functioning.
Mini-Courses
All students have an opportunity to choose mini-courses to explore individual areas of interest.
Mini-courses are multi-aged and students have an opportunity to learn from teachers throughout
the building. In middle school, mini-course rotations occur every six weeks, and they rotate more
frequently in elementary school.
Silver and Teal Days
Middle school students alternate Spanish and Encore choices every other day. The terms Silver
and Teal days are used to refer to which of these classes (either Spanish or Encore) a student is to
attend on a specified day. This differentiation helps students remember if they need to be in
Spanish or Encore. Silver and Teal day calendars are printed in students’ planners, posted on our
website, and announced every day.
9
Planner
All students will be given a planner on the first day of school. Unique to Challenge, we’ve
developed a planner system that will support the growth of students’ executive functioning skills.
Students will receive instruction from their teachers on how to use the planner.
Student Lunches
Our school cafeteria serves breakfast and lunch each day, and also offers students a variety of a
la carte items. Parents can load money on their child’s account during check-in or online through
PayPams. If your child has a balance from their home school, it will be transferred to Challenge.
PayPams allows you to look at your student’s purchases so you can be aware of what kind of
purchases your child is making each day. Please know that you may put purchasing restrictions
on your child’s account to limit the quantity or types of items purchased. Please contact the
kitchen manager during check-in if you are interested in adding restrictions.
You may apply for free and reduced meals on the Cherry Creek Food Service website at
http://www.ccsdcafe.org. A new application is required each year. If you qualify for free or
reduced meals, please keep your qualification letter as you may also be eligible for discounts in
Wolf Watch and scholarships for school events.
Many students also bring lunch from home. Microwaves are available for students to use to heat
food; however, they need to be able to use them independently.
Gym Clothes and Shoes
All students are required to have appropriate shoes and clothes to participate in P.E. In middle
school, dressing out is optional, but highly encouraged. Lockers are provided for middle school
students who wish to change clothes. Students may bring appropriate clothes from home to
change into and/or purchase Challenge Spirit Wear during check-in.
Clubs and Activities
Challenge offers a variety of clubs and activities for our students. Opportunities are listed on our
website and announced in our weekly email newsletter, Wolf Tracks. Some examples include
Student Council (K-4), Student Senate (5-8), Robotics, Destination Imagination, Chess Club,
Speech and Debate, Musical, Intramurals, Art, and Technology Student Association. The PTCO
also sponsors groups such as Brownies and Girl Scouts. Private organizations also provide
opportunities for students. Please check our website for the latest information.
PowerSchool and Schoology PowerSchool and Schoology are tools students and parents can use to monitor assignments and
progress. PowerSchool is an electronic gradebook and is used in grades 3 through 8. Middle
school teachers use Schoology to post assignments, handouts, and discussions for students.
Parents can access these tools through their my.cherrycreekschools.org login.
Monitoring student progress is an important role parents play in their child’s education and while
PowerSchool and Schoology can be helpful tools, parent overuse of these tools can change the
dynamics of students’ ownership in learning. To support student independence and ownership in
learning, students and parents should set up a time weekly where the child logs into PowerSchool
with a parent present and reviews his/her progress. Families can then celebrate together and
troubleshoot any problems that arise. Students respond well to this collaborative approach of
10
monitoring progress. A similar approach can be used for Schoology. If assignments are posted
and a child needs support in accessing them, parents should coach their child through logging in
and finding them.
Back to School Night
Please mark your calendar for the following Back to School Nights:
Grades 5-8 August 14, 2019 at 6:30 P.M.
Grades K-4 August 20, 2019 at 6:30 P.M.
Wolf Tracks
Wolf Tracks is published via email on each Friday and includes brief announcements of
upcoming events.
The Howler
The Howler is our school directory. You may choose whether or not to include your information
in the Howler when you complete the online forms prior to check-in, and you will have an
opportunity to order a copy during check-in. Some families find it beneficial to order multiple
copies to keep in cars in case you need to quickly arrange alternate pick-ups for your child or
need to reach another Challenge family.
Driving Paperwork
Our students have great opportunities at little to no cost to families because our parents volunteer
to drive during Immersions and on field trips. All that is required is a one-page form, a copy of
your driver’s license, and a copy of your insurance (minimum coverage is required). Driving
paperwork is sent out in the check-in packet and collected during check-in so we can be ready to
go early in the school year. Please consider driving for Challenge activities (and earn service
hours); watch for the paperwork and turn it in so you can be a driver. Our programs are
dependent on this support from our parent community.
Parent Organizations
Challenge has multiple parent groups in which you can be a part.
PTCO meets monthly on Mondays, alternating between morning and evening meetings.
PTCO supports parent involvement in the school and in education, and provides financial
support to the school.
The Advisory and Accountability Committee (AAC) meets four times a year on Tuesdays
in the evening. The role of the AAC is to review school performance and provide input
for school improvement efforts.
PASS meets four times a year on Tuesdays in the evening, and is comprised of parents
and educators who collaborate to promote the success of all students. The goal of PASS
is to cultivate partnerships with families of our Black and Latino students and its work
includes developing resources and action plans that support the academic achievement of
our students of color.
The Wellness Committee meets every other month on Monday mornings, and supports
the nutritional, physical, psychological, and environmental wellness of our school
community.
Please look on our school website for more information about any of these groups and their
meeting schedules.
11
September
Immersion
Immersion weeks take place two times during the school year: the week before fall break and the
second to last week of school in May. Immersions are multi-age, in-depth explorations into an
area of study. They are unique to Challenge and a program of which we are proud! Students
choose from a catalog of options which are published in September and April each year. There
are fees associated with Immersions, and both fund-raising and scholarship opportunities are
available. Immersion time is a great time for parents to log volunteer hours by driving students
on their excursions.
Immersion Driver Paperwork is required of all drivers. Each driver's license is processed through
the school district's Risk Management Dept. and must pass a DMV report. Each driver must have
current insurance. The success of Immersion depends on ALL parents to participate in driving to
these educational activities.
Conferences
Conferences take place twice a year, at the end of September and the end of April. All
conferences are student-led and supported by the student’s Connections teacher. Fall conferences
focus on goals for the school year and spring conferences focus on celebration and reflection.
Parents sign up for conferences through SignUpGenius two weeks prior to conferences.
Classroom Parties
Students in grades K – 4 have classroom parties in December and February, in addition to end-
of-the-year celebrations. Room parents coordinate and disseminate information regarding the
parties.
Contacting a Teacher
The best way to contact a teacher is by email. Teachers provide their contact information at Back
to School Night and you can find contact information on our website and in the Howler,
Teachers typically respond within a day of receiving your email.
May

– 7th graders is Friday, May 22, 2020. Students are dismissed at 11:00 A.M. that day.
Community and Fundraising Events
Challenge is fortunate to have an engaged and supportive community. Below are just some of the
events scheduled throughout the year.
● Wolf Run - Wolf Run is our big fall fundraiser where students walk/run laps for 30
minutes during one school day. This event encourages students to live healthy lives,
builds up the school community, and raises funds through pledges/donations. The
Assembly and Run Day will occur in September and Prize day will occur in October. ● Fall Festival - Fall Festival is our biggest fall community event where families are
welcome to come and eat, play games, purchase baked goods, and meet other parents.
This event happens on a Saturday afternoon in October. ● Cultural Night - We have a variety of cultures represented at Challenge and are excited to
have an event to celebrate that diversity. This event will take place one evening in the
fall. ● Trivia Night - Trivia Night is another fun community event where families team up with
other families to compete in various categories. In order for all ages to participate we
always include questions that vary in difficulty. This event is usually one evening in
January. ● Spring Fest - Fest is our spring community event that celebrates the year. The event
usually includes food, inflatables, and music. This event is on a Friday evening in May.
