April 19, 2024

It is a busy time of year in the life of our intermediate Bobcats.  Our PSSA testing begins next week with English Language Arts being assessed on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday morning.   Our students are well prepared and ready to go.  Please make sure they get a good night’s sleep, a good breakfast in the morning and a little extra love each day.   On Thursday we celebrated our Bobcats amazing behaviors with this month’s bash.  This month, each grade level competed in “Minute to Win it” style games at our Mini- BOB (Battle of the Buildings).  The competition was stiff, the cheers were loud, and the smiles were huge.  

Please read all of the exciting things that are taking place in the upcoming weeks. Have a great weekend.

  • Grace’s teachers and fellow students also created a Fighting Grace-Fully shirt design.   Shirts may be ordered and purchased in the link below.  All proceeds will be used to help Grace and her family as they battle this disease.
