 Yealey Families -

What an amazing week it has been here!  It has been so great to see so many of our Bobcats back in the building.  I know that the pictures you're seeing on Facebook and Instagram show some of what it's like to be back but since it's hard to see the smiles you really need to be here to hear them.  The kids and staff are so excited and happy to be together again.  Lots of laughing and positive comments can be heard throughout the building.  While our social media tells some of our story, in this case, there's a big part of it not being told without the sounds - and, these sounds are music to my ears!

I just wanted to be sure to clear up any confusion on the at-home learning days during this hybrid model.  When the kids are at home, there are work requirements and participation requirements for each day.  Please check with your teacher or in their google classrooms for specifics. Mr. Rice and Mrs. Roedersheimer have been following up with families on attendance and participation.  We want to make sure everyone is getting the most out of their educational opportunities.

If you had any confusion on how things worked this week, please go back and read 9/18's blog for details and please reach out if you have any questions.  Everything has really worked very well so far.  Thank you for helping with all the new procedures.

Please be sure to support the PTA this year by purchasing pumpkins and sharing our pumpkin fundraiser with your family and friends.  Sale ends Monday, 10/5/20. 

Our SBDM council is in need of a minority parent representative.  If you qualify as a minority by the definition from KDE: "Minority is defined as “American Indian; Alaskan native; African-American; Hispanic, including persons of Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, and Central- or South-American origins; Pacific Islander; or other ethnic group underrepresented in the school” [KRS 160345(1)(a)]." and you are interested in running for a seat on our SBDM council, please let me know.   

There will be no blog update next Friday since it is Fall Break.  Remember we are off school Friday the 9th and Monday the 12th.  I will email or send a phone call if any urgent information needs to be relayed.  Enjoy this weekend and your nice long weekend next week.  

Mrs. Turner

  1. This is the first I have heard about the pumpkin fundraiser. When and where would this information have been shared with parents?
