Shiver Me Timbers! What a Pirate Day! It was absolute gold seeing our hallways packed with swashbuckling pirates for Talk Like A Pirate Day! From impressive "Arrghs!" to top-notch eye patches, our students and staff brought legendary energy. A huge, roaring shoutout to Ms. Mann for steering the ship and planning such an awesome day—you truly treasure-map-level rocked it!

A massive thank you to everyone who joined us for Donuts with Dear Ones! There’s really no better combination than sugary treats and wonderful family time to start the morning off right. We owe a giant high-five to our fantastic PTA for sponsoring and running the whole delicious operation.

We know mornings can feel like a high-stakes race against the clock (and lost shoes!), but getting our Bobcats to school on time, fully rested, and with a belly full of breakfast makes a world of difference. Think of sleep and food as super-charging their brain batteries—it gives them the juice they need to tackle the day with a smile and focus like a champ. Thanks for being the ultimate morning pit crew!

Mark Your Calendars: Kindergarten Curriculum Night.... Calling all Kindergarten parents! Join us this Wednesday for Curriculum Night. We’ll be spilling all the secrets on what our littlest Bobcats are learning, how classroom routines work, and how you can survive—and support—their exciting journey through kindergarten!

A huge shout-out to Ms. Akesson, Ms. Phillips-Snyder, and our incredible Student Support Team for sponsoring Start With Hello Resiliency Week! Thank you for teaching our Bobcats the power of a simple greeting, building connection, and making sure every single student feels seen, included, and valued. You are building a stronger, kinder community every day!

I wish you well,

Jim
