Hello Bobcat Families!

I hope you have had a restful weekend so far. Just a reminder we do not have school tomorrow, January 20th in observance of Martin Luther King Jr. day. I look forward to seeing everyone on Tuesday. Here is a look at this week.
 
Rainy/Cold Weather
The temperatures have been dropping! Please help us keep our students warm and dry by making sure to send them with a warm jacket, preferably one that is waterproof and with a hood. We also highly recommend that you put their first and last name on it so if it is lost, it can easily be reunited with them. If you need assistance with this please let us know, we have some extra jackets that have been donated to us.
 
Assessments Continuing This Week
We are continuing our iReady Assessments this week. Please encourage your child to take their time and do their best. The assessments we take during winter are used to support students during our double dose time. It also gives us ways to support our students during core reading and math. We are looking forward to seeing their progress!
 
January Virtue
The virtue for January is responsible. ​Our staff will be on the lookout for students being responsible in the classroom, at recess and in the cafeteria.
 
Student Vaccine Clinics
Student Vaccine Clinics
Orchid Health in Sandy is having a few student vaccine clinics for any students still needing immunizations. Just a reminder, immunization exclusion day is February 19th.

Please see attached flyers for more information.
