Dear Neubert Families,


This week will be a short one, and our students (and families!) can look forward to a well-deserved 4-day weekend as there is no school on 10/10 and 10/13. We hope you enjoy this extra time to rest, recharge, and make memories together.


Thank you for partnering with us and for all you do to make Neubert such a special place for our students to learn and grow.


Your Partner in Education,

Ms. Nicole Bryan, Principal
Neubert Elementary School

Jennifer Jensen - K/1 Cross Cat Paraeducator


Jen is excited to be back in the working world. She took a long break to be at home with her three children, Colin-11, Nora-9 and Molly-5 Now that her youngest is in kindergarten (at Neubert), she is enjoying being at school everyday for work. She loves assisting in the cross cat room, learning more and more about the kids each day and being part of such a welcoming community. When she's not at school, she enjoys taxiing her own kids to their various activities, performing in park district musicals, reading and running and finding time to spend with her husband Tyler.

Did you know that October is the time when schools across the country celebrate Walk, Bike & Roll to School Day? This year's national event is scheduled for October 9, 2025.

  • It's a great way to get your child moving and energized in the morning

  • It helps build awareness of safe walking and biking routes

  • It brings families, neighbors, and the school community together

What can you do?

  • Walk, bike, or "roll" (scooters, skateboards, etc.) with your child to school that day

  • Help plan or volunteer at a gathering spot or "walking school bus" route

  • Snap photos and share them

We'd love for our school to take part! Mark your calendars, and let's help make safe, active travel to school a celebration!

Hispanic Heritage Month Hispanic Heritage Month

September 15-October 15 is Hispanic Heritage Month, a time to celebrate the rich histories, cultures, and contributions of those whose ancestors came from Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean, and Central and South America.

At Neubert, we honor and value the diverse backgrounds of our students, families, and community members. Throughout the month, classes will engage in activities that highlight Hispanic culture, traditions, and influential figures who have made lasting impacts on our world.

We encourage families to celebrate at home too! You might:

  • Read books together by Hispanic authors 📚

  • Try cooking a traditional Hispanic recipe 🍲

  • Listen to music from Hispanic artists 🎶

  • Share stories and traditions from your own family’s heritage 💬

Together, let’s celebrate and learn from the cultures that make our community so vibrant!

National Bullying Prevention Month is observed annually in October to raise awareness about the impacts of bullying and to promote kindness, acceptance, and inclusion. The month-long campaign, led by PACER's National Bullying Prevention Center, encourages people to unite against bullying and features a signature event called Unity Day on October 22nd, where participants wear and share the color orange to show support. Our teachers will be providing lessons and discussions that are designed to help students build empathy, strengthen relationships, and promote a culture of kindness and respect in our school throughout the entire month of October.

Updated 10/6/25

Our Lost and Found is bursting with lonely jackets, water bottles, and sweatshirts that are hoping to find their way back home! Please take a look at the pictures we’ve shared to see if any of these items belong to your child. To help our “lost treasures” get back to their owners even faster, we’d love for you to add your child’s name inside their belongings. That way, we can return them right away before they end up on another adventure in the Lost and Found!
