Wildcat Weekly
January 3, 2019 Edition
Ready for 2019!
We hope your transition to 2019 has been positive! There were definitely some sleepy students on our first day back but we are getting back into the routine and excited for the work ahead.
As our temperatures continue to fluctuate, we do ask that your child dress in layers and be prepared for the changes. If a coat, hat, or glove does not make it home, please ask your child to check our lost and found. We are only two days back from break and it is starting to fill. We do scan these items regularly for a name so that helps get items back.

Raptor Reset in 2019
Just a reminder that the district clears the Raptor Visitor Management System two times a year. The first is in August and the second is late January. If you enter the building after the reset, you will need to show your license. We just wanted to give you an early warning!
