Important iPad Updates for the 2025-2026 School Year
St. Vrain’s District Technology Services has made several updates to student iPads for the upcoming school year to support a focused and secure digital learning environment both at school and at home. One key update is the implementation of a new internet filter, Securly, which adds an extra layer of protection to iPads by blocking certain types of websites.
For more information about these updates – and what they mean for your child’s device — please click here.
PAWS
At Timberline, we use our PAWS!
Positive Attitude
Act Responsibly
Work Hard
Show Respect
During the month of August, our staff and students focus on all the PAWS and how we use them in all areas of our school. We ask, “what does it look like and sound like to use our PAWS in the classroom, hallways, lunchroom, playground, etc.?” Talking with your student about how they use their PAWS at home strengthens the connection between home and school.
Timberline PK-8 PTO
We would love to have you join our PTO! There are lots of opportunities to participate at school, home and in the community throughout the year. We thrive when we work together. Please complete the attached form at your earliest convenience.
School Arrival and Dismissal
Breakfast starts at 8:10 AM at Timberline, and this is the time doors open. There is no supervision prior to 8:10 so please make sure that students are dropped off no earlier than 8:10am. If students arrive after the tardy bell rings at 8:25am, they must enter through the main entrance as all outside doors are locked at that time.
School dismisses at 3:30pm and students will be dismissed from the same door they enter in the morning. Staff remains on duty until 3:40pm. Students remaining after 3:40pm will be escorted to the front office so they have an adult with them. Please make every effort to pick up your child on time. We understand that sometimes things happen and a parent is late to pick up their child. In these cases, please let our front office know.
Family Drop Off/Pick Up Loop
Timberline provides a drop off and pick up loops for the convenience of our families. The rear loop is located south of the school building. Parents can easily and conveniently enter and exit following the traffic loop with quick and safe curbside drop off and pick up. This entrance is off Lashley street between the school and park. Parents may also drop off their students in the two front traffic loops. Please make sure that your students use proper crosswalks. We must not have students entering traffic lanes to get into cars or to exit cars to get into school. We have several staff supervising and monitoring the parking lots for everyone’s safety. Cars need to stay in the designated traffic areas or use designated parking places. Please also make sure to stay clear of our bus lanes along the curb just west of the main doors. The safety of our students, families, and staff is a priority.
Cell Free Zone
In order to support a vibrant learning environment, Timberline is a cell phone free zone between 8:20am and 3:30pm, including before and after school activities. Families ALWAYS have access to their students, and students ALWAYS have access to their families through our office phones. Please contact our office at 303-772-7900 and we will be happy to connect you with your child.
