Felicitations, Mademoiselle Drees!

District Curfew on iPads
The Executive Leadership Team for Omaha Public Schools has implemented a curfew profile that blocks all apps on district issued iPads from use from 10:00 PM to 5:30 AM. Between those times, it will appear as if all apps have been removed from the iPad, but they will reappear at 5:30 with no action needed from you or your student.
Please encourage your student to complete homework before that 10:00 PM cut-off time as this curfew does not impact due dates for homework.
Reminder: What to Bring to School
- Keep your backpack light, bring only your "A Day" or "B Day" materials
- A clear water bottle for water only, please
- Fully charged iPad for your classes
Do Not Bring
- Rolling back packs (per the code of conduct), hallways are crowded and these create tripping hazards
- Extra food for snacking and sharing
- Apple AirPods
Code of Conduct: Cell Phone Policy
Students, have those cell phones and outside electronic devices off and out of sight during the school day!
Parents, if you need to contact your child, please call the front office at 531-299-2320 or email your child directly.
Access the Code of Conduct here.
Code of Conduct: Lunch Policy
Code of Conduct states: Due to federal regulations, no commercial or fast food or pop is allowed in the cafeteria during breakfast/lunch period(s). All food/drinks need to be consume in the cafe only. All vending machines will be turned off during the school day, which includes the lunch period.
Photo Finish!
Buffett Bobcats participate in Advisory every day while at school. Advisory is a time set aside in the day for our students to engage with a single teacher in the school. During Advisory the teacher and students will be:​ building relationships through team building activities​, setting and tracking academic goals​, and developing social emotional skills.
Buffett Bobcats participated in a team building activity the week of August 23rd. The activity was called, Photo Finish. The goals of the activity were to build relationships with their class community and learn to interact with all their classmates; sharpen their communication skills, both verbal and nonverbal; and critically think and solve problems in a team building structure.
