A Great Week to Be a Bulldog! 🐾

We are continuing to settle into our beautiful new building, and it is exciting to see it truly coming to life! I've been spending time in classrooms, and I love seeing the incredible learning taking place. Our students are engaged, our teachers are doing amazing things, and there is so much to be proud of!

While we are settling into our new space, construction continues across campus. Demolition of the old elementary building is scheduled to begin tomorrow, Monday, October 26. This is another big step in the transformation of our campus! We appreciate everyone's patience and flexibility as work continues, and we ask that everyone remain mindful of construction areas and safety precautions.

We have another exciting week ahead with Red Ribbon Week, Family Night, and our final football walkthrough and pep rally of the season!

🏠 FAMILY NIGHT – TUESDAY, OCTOBER 27 | 4:30–6:30 PM

We want to see ALL of our Bulldog families at Family Night! Join us inside and outside the elementary cafeteria for an evening of fun, learning, and connection! This year's Family Night is HOUSE THEMED, so be sure to wear your HOUSE COLORS and show your House pride! We'll have fun activities outside and informational opportunities inside for families. This is a great chance to connect with our school, learn more about what's happening, and enjoy time together as a Bulldog family!

Attention 3rd Grade Parents: Please make plans to stop by and visit with Mrs. Anselmi to learn more about Arkansas's 3rd grade promotion laws and what they mean for your child. This is important information that we want every 3rd grade family to understand!

Thank you for everything you continue to do for our students and for one another. I know this transition has required a lot of flexibility, and I appreciate the heart and hard work you bring to our school every day.

Let's make it a great week, Bulldogs! 💙🐾

Proud to be your principal!
Candace Anselmi
