Blanche Dodd Bobcat News

A message from Principal Bolz
This has been such an unusual and difficult end to our school year. Your teachers have worked diligently to continue instruction while managing their own children and households. You, as parents, have worked diligently to ensure that your children are remaining committed to their learning while managing your own households with remote work, loss of jobs, illness, and multiple children learning from home. I am so proud and honored to lead such a wonderfully dedicated group of educators. Likewise, I am proud and honored to partner with such a caring and dedicated group of families. This community is Bobcat Strong through smooth and tumultuous times. We have three weeks left in this school year. Let’s finish BOBCAT STRONG!
It's a great time to be a Dodd Bobcat, where we are...
SIX HOUSES...ONE FAMILY!
Stay healthy, stay safe, stay home!
Teacher Appreciation Drop-Off May 7th 10:00-2:00
This week is Teacher Appreciation Week!. This is usually a big week for our staff members; however, I know it will be difficult to celebrate remotely. Many of you have asked what the best way would be to honor your child's teacher this year. On Thursday, May 7th, 10:00-2:00, we will have a monitored drop and go location in the parent drop-off line to drop off cards or gifts for your teachers. Of course this is completely optional, but feel free to utilize this option if you find it helpful. You can also reach out to your child's teacher if you'd prefer to set up a different method.
