Bobcat Bulletin Feb 24th-March 1st

We have a pretty calm week coming up.

If you have a third grader, please make sure they get a good night's rest on Monday night. They will take their practice reading STAAR test on Tuesday. We know they will do amazing!

Just a reminder, for when using the pick up lanes. Please do not stop on the crosswalks to let out your students. Please SLOW down when driving in the pick-up lane. If you have a teenager driving, please remind them especially of this as well as driving slowly around the school during school hours, especially in the morning and afternoons.

Very proud of 12 of our 6th graders competing in TMSCA events (Number Sense, Calaculator, Mathematics and/or Science). They have another meet coming up this weeked at Smyer. Good luck and work hard this week to qualify for State!

Big congratulations goes out to our 5th and 6th graders that competed in their Band Solo competition this week. I got to judge a few of them and we have a bright future in Music!

Below is a newsletter our 5th graders put together on their own. A few students came to me and asked if they could do this and I thought it was a great idea. I can't wait to see them grow!

Have a great week,

Mrs. Gibson

Great job to the Smyer Bowling Team who has advanced to the regional tournament!! Chloe Horn, who is ranked 4th in district, has also advanced in singles and will also compete in the all-district tournament!

Mr. Pond

We are very grateful that Mrs. Langill and Pepper were able to find time this week to help out Idalou's counselor in their time of loss.

Last, week our 5th and 6th Graders performed at the Smyer Solo Contest. These students put aside their nerves and had many great performances. Solos are scored on a scale of 1 to 5 with 1 being the best. All of our students received a rating of 1 (superior) or 2 (excellent). On Friday, all of the students received their gold and silver medals and they seemed very excited!

This week, our High School Band students will be headed to Abernathy on Friday for the UIL Solo and Ensemble Contest. The itinerary will be sent out to the students involved.

We are almost finished with our staging of the HS UIL OAP. Call list for this week:

Tuesday- 4:00 - 6:00- All Actors- Katie, Juliana, Remi, Asher, Kyra, Kianna, Tiffany, Madason, Devin
