Pre-Order School Supplies by 7/1
For the 2020-21 school year, we are continuing our partnership with 1st Day School Supplies. Families can purchase kits which will be delivered to your child's classroom teacher. Steele will receive a small number of free kits based on the number of families who order through this service. We have extended this year's deadline to order by two weeks to July 1. We understand these are difficult times and if you find that purchasing supplies is a hardship, please reach out to your teacher or
Marti Rosenberg to reserve a free/or reduced cost kit. Contact our school supply coordinator
Johanna Woodrow with any questions.

Steele Families needed in the Garden! The irrigation is in, and we are kicking the Garden into high gear! We need your help to maintain weed-free beds and pathways during the summer "break." If you are sick of making sourdough, try your hand at Urban Farming! Plant seeds with the kids, enjoy fresh air, and reward your hard work with fresh produce--yours to harvest until the start of school! All surplus produce will be donated.
Sign up here
for a bed or two. Social Distancing in effect. No experience required; we will help all thumbs become green. Contact April Amiel 303.715.8676 or Theresa Nuber 415.602.0652 with questions.
Ways to Help During This Time
Some families have asked how to help the community during this time. Here are some ideas.
- Our sister school, Ellis Elementary, could really use some Stallion support right now! If you are able to give, they have a GoFundMe page to learn more. All donations will be handled by Ellis Elementary's PTO and will be given to families in need at their school to pay for rent, utilities, food, etc.
