Welcome BULLDOGS!

REMINDER TOMORROW IS PICTURE DAY!!!
Ronald McDonald House
We are collecting pop tabs to support Ronald McDonald House Charities and families receiving care at Children’s Mercy Hospital! Those tiny aluminum pull-tabs on beverage cans add up quickly to make a huge difference, helping provide a comfortable "home-away-from-home" for families while their kids undergo treatment. During lunch, if you have a drink with a pop tab, wiggle it until it comes off the can. Drop it in the container in the middle of the MPR. That's it! If you want, you can also collect at home and bring them to Mr. Chapple any time!
Yearbook
ATTENTION 8th GRADE STUDENTS - We’re looking for a photo of you before you were a Bulldog for the yearbook! This photo can be from infancy through about age 4—cute, silly, adorable, or just a favorite memory from when you were little! The deadline is Thursday, October 8th, but don't wait to send it in. Ask your parents to check the school announcements on where to send the photo or see Mrs. Zugelder with questions.

Screentime Break
Getting lost in a screen after a long day can be easy, but it’s important to make sure you’re taking breaks away from your digital devices. But, that can be easier said than done.
Here are some ways you can get into the habit of stepping away from the screens for a while:
- Set a timer or an alarm to remind yourself to take some time away from your devices
- Set daily usage limits for yourself
- Make certain areas of your home tech-free zones
- Avoid using screens before bed
