Parents, if you pick a child up from the parking lot location, we will be releasing them from the front entrance and asking you to pick them up there. Please park on Grace Ave. and avoid parking in the parking lot due to an event in the EHS modular.

Tasty Tuesday @ La Junta CDS. We had another great day celebrating Week of the Young Child! Chef Travis Masar spent the day participating in our COWP cooking activity, reading books, and answering interview questions from the children. Travis is a LJHS graduate and has owned Pig and Tiger in Boulder, CO since fall of 2020. A big thanks to him for spending the day with us! We also celebrated the men in our program with a Father Engagement family night. Pizza was donated from Dominos and Little Caesar's. Families played BINGO and then we had a great panel of men from our community share their experiences in fatherhood and give words of wisdom to our families. Thank you to Max Cordova, Deputy Chief Scott Copley, Jake Martinez, and Mayor Joe Ayala for spending the evening with us!
