When is enrollment and registration? What if I miss the registration period?

Open enrollment for the 2023-2024 school year begins December, 2022 with the EnrollJeffco system. Once open enrollment has closed and offers have been issued, registration at the school can begin around the end of February. You will receive communication once registration is open. 

Can my student attend RMAE if we live outside the district?

Yes, on a space-available basis. Maximum class sizes do exist. 

Is there a Dress Code? 

Yes, please refer to our dress code for the details.

How do I get information about RMAE’s after-school childcare?

Rocky Mountain Kids provides quality childcare onsite at RMAE. Age-appropriate educational and recreational activities are provided. All after-care students must be registered through Rocky Mountain Kids. 720-877-5765

Will my student have Specials (Art, Music, Tech, Spanish, and P.E.)?

The Core Knowledge curriculum incorporates Art, Music, Technology, Spanish and P.E into the program for all students.

When do the supply lists become available?

The supply lists will be available on the RMAE website in late spring for the following school year. RMAE’s PTO will also be selling supply kits. These are considerably less expensive than purchasing the items on your own and have the added bonus that they are also a fundraiser for our PTO.

How do I pay our student fees?

The classroom fees sheets will be available, for review only, in late March.  Parents may pay directly through Jeffco Connect beginning August 1st. Please contact our Business Office for any special arrangements that may be necessary or to complete the Family Economic Data Survey form.  Student Fee Sheets

What are the summer office hours?

Office hours will be posted on the door to the school. Enrollment questions may be asked by phone or email and will be answered weekly ([email protected]).

Is Hot Lunch available?

We do not have a daily hot lunch program at RMAE. Students should plan to bring a sack lunch and snack each day. PTO runs Jimmy John's, Pizza and Froyo fundraisers as additional lunch options.

What is the attendance policy?

Regular daily attendance is expected of all students.
Attendance is the responsibility of the student, the parents, and the school. The importance of regular, daily attendance as a basis for academic achievement cannot be overemphasized. Absences have a negative effect on instructional continuity, regardless of attempts to make up work. Parents should inform the office and/or teacher about their child’s absence by 9:15 a.m. ([email protected]
).  Parents may also leave attendance messages on the attendance line at 303.670.1070 x150.  


Prearranged Absences – If you are planning a longer absence we ask that you notify the office in advance, by submitting the 
RMAE Pre Arranged Absence Form to the office prior to the absence.
