Overdue Library Books - It’s that time of year when we’re trying to get everything back to the library and clear student records for the semester! Please check to see if your student has overdue materials from the Cobb Library. Overdue notices have been sent to your student through their ILA class as well as home emails. Names of students who still have very late overdues will be turned over to administration starting Tuesday 1/19. Please check your student’s account by visiting the Cobb Library online catalog at www.bit.ly/cobblc. Click on the “My Account” tab and enter your student’s ID number and 8-digit birthday to see items out.
If the book is truly lost, please pay for replacement online at Mackin’s www.Funds4books.com, as we are not able to accept donated books or take payments in the library. Contact Ms. Meeks in the library regarding book replacement cost of your student's books at meeksm@friscoisd.org.
Have you ordered your yearbook? - Your last opportunity to purchase a 2015-2016 Cobb yearbook is THIS FRIDAY! NO YEARBOOKS WILL BE SOLD after January 29th, so don't miss out. Order Now.
FCA Weekend of Champions - FCA will host its annual sports camp February 26-28. Registration is open now and ends February 5th. Visit the DFW FCA website to sign up. Feel free to email Coach Young for more information.
Lost and Found - The Lost and Found is located along the back wall of the cafeteria. All misplaced items of clothing, lunchboxes, pencil bags, etc. should be brought to this location if found.
