A note from Mrs. Cureton:
We have had a great week this week! Thank you to all of our families that came out to enjoy the PTA Fall Festival with us!
Families: we need your help with morning arrival! Morning arrival, at the cafe doors, is from 7:00am--7:50am, daily. At 7:50am, we shut the cafe doors so that our staff can begin instruction. If you arrive with your student at 7:51am or later, you must drive them around to the front office and walk them in to sign them in for the day. Please do not drop your students off at the cafe doors after 7:50am as there are no adults to let the students in the building there at that time--this is a huge safety concern. Thank you for your support and compliance with this matter.
We are excited for some of our Cougars to participate in Punt, Pass, Kick on Saturday, November 2nd! Good luck, Cougars!

Stuff the Turkeys:
Our amazing PTA is aiming to help our school raise funds for more playground equipment! As you guys may have noticed, one of our playgrounds was removed over the summer and now our kids only have a small playground area to play on each day. We would love to have more items for our kids to play on and are trying to raise the funds to make that happen!
PTA is hosting a Stuff the Turkeys fundraiser to help! Please bring in your spare change and have your student(s) drop their spare change in their grade level turkey (located in the front office). The grade level with the most change donated will win an ice cream party! All proceeds from this will go towards funds for playground materials!
PTA Movie Night:
We can't wait for our annual Movie Night in the cafe! Bring your family, lawn chairs, and blankets and come watch the 2018 version of The Grinch. We hope all of our families come out for this free event! PTA will have concession items available for purchase. Ms. Katie will also have some amazing student artwork on display at this event. Please come out and see your student's masterpiece!
Please note the date change for Punt, Pass, Kick below--rescheduled to Nov. 2nd.
