Weekly Parent Update

February 8, 2026

Hello Bobcat Families!

I hope you are having a good and restful weekend. No matter if you are watching football with your family, resting, or working I hope you were able to enjoy it! 
Here is the latest news and information for the week ahead:
 
Road Safety

Student Drop Off Safety

We have noticed the last several weeks unsafe behaviors when dropping students off. Please remember the following:

  • Please stay in your vehicle. If your student needs help getting out of the car, please find a place to park and walk them to the door.
  • Please do not drive away with your car/van doors open.
  • Do not flip around in the middle of the street to get into the drop off lane. Please drive around the block and turn around safely.
  • Please remember to not stop in the middle of the road to drop off or pick up your students. This creates more traffic.
 

Conferences

Conferences are this week! Please sign up with your child's teacher if you haven't already.
 

February Virtue

This month's virtue is Perseverance!

Persevering at school means maintaining your effort and focus even when you face difficulties, setbacks, or a lack of motivation. It is the ability to push through the "hard parts" of learning to achieve your long-term educational goals.

It isn't just about working hard when things are going well; it is defined by how you react when things go wrong.
