A message from your Administrators

Hello Bobcat Families!

We had a great WOW week last week! Thank you to Ms. Chavez and ASB for designing and executing a week filled with amazing spirit days and fun filled daily activities for all of our bobcats! It was definitely a week to remember!

This week we will have our Back to School Night on Tuesday from 6:00-8:00. This year, we will not have bells during Back to School Night, which means that you can visit all of your student's classes in whichever order and duration of your choosing. We will also have Jamba Juice for sale! We cannot wait to see you on Tuesday!

Sincerely,

Ms. Ramos-Principal

Ms. Macias-Assistant Principal

Parking Lot Reminders

As we are starting the new year, please remember the following guidelines. for our pick-up and drop off procedures. Our parking lot gets quite busy daily, and we want to ensure the safety of all of our students and staff.

1. If you arrive early PLEASE, always pull forward. The more room we make for one another, the easier it is to drop off and pick up.

2. Do not stop in the middle of the lot for long periods of time. Drop off and pick up should only take a few seconds.

3. Please make sure your Bobcat is ready with their backpack and materials before you enter the lot.

4.The lane closest to the parking spots is not for stopping. Please keep this lane moving, as it helps the flow of traffic in the parking lot.

5.BE KIND to one another. We all have the same goal: to get our Bobcats to school, and home from school safely.

You may see me, Ms. Macias, and our supervisors out guiding traffic and asking you to move your car. Please be respectful, as we are doing our best to keep all of our students and staff safe. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out.
