Bobcat Bulletin

Schnell Elementary has gone many years without Halloween costumes on campus, but this year students will be allowed to dress up at school for Halloween. Keep in mind that although your own child may be accustomed to scary stuff, not all are... including our little TK students who are only 4-5 years old. So to make this a new Schnell tradition, help ensure all enjoy themselves and no one is scared and everyone is able to sit comfortably at their desk; students need to follow these guidelines.

• No blood
• No full masks
• No weapons
• No inflatable costumes/large props
• School dress code still enforced

If you are concerned about your child wearing their costume to school, have your child dress in an alternative costume. We do not wat to see disappointed kiddos if something happens to their costume.

We understand our little parking lot is congested during pick up and drop off times, but we ask that families please avoid parking in front of the red Fire Lane curb as it needs to remain clear at all times and parking beside it, whether you're in the car or not, is not allowed to ensure our buses can get in and out and it's clear in the event of an emergency. EDCOE has also asked that we do not park in any parking spaces labeled EDCOE at the bottom of the hill so preschool families can pick up their children safely since they do not have a "drive-thru" option like ours.

All small orders will be sent home with students. Bus riders with large orders will either have their order sent home over the course of two days, or you can pick it up all at once if you let us know. The dough is shelf stable and can be out of the freezer for a couple of days, but then get it back in the freezer or bake the dough. Any questions?

Show your school spirit with new Bobcat swag! We encourage students to wear school colors and spirit wear every Friday. Spirit Wear order forms were sent out so check your child's backpack for a light purple flyer to place your order. We will order some extras that will be available in the library for purchase later, but hope to send in one big order to help meet purchase requirements with our printer. After the order is submitted, it will take 1-2 weeks to get them in and distributed to students. Any questions or you need another order form, email mradtke@pusdk8.us

The Good News Club meets every Tuesday (except holidays and minimum days) after school until 4:45 PM in room 1C. Students will learn about the Bible with songs, stories, and games. In order to participate, students must return a Good News Club Registration form, available in the office.

FREE ENGLISH-SPANISH LANGUAGE CLASSES FOR ADULTS- Childcare is offered. See flyer for more information.

ARE YOU AND YOUR FAMILY IN A TEMPORARY LIVING ARRANGEMENT? – If you had to move out of your home and move in with others, a hotel or other temporary residence due to something urgent (such as not being able to pay rent), please contact me to see if your child qualifies for my program. I am here to help. I also provide resources for all families.
