State Mandated Child Abuse Lessons K-6

You should have received a letter explaining our state mandated child sexual abuse prevention lesson that I will be facilitating in grades K-5. We are asking for any opt-outs to be submitted by May 2nd, 2025. Even if you have opted out last year, we ask that you reach out to Mr. Sette or myself if you wish to opt out again this year.  Please see the letter that was sent home for more information. It is also included on the homepage of the Counselor’s Corner site.

Bobcat Bingo

If your 3rd-5th grader chose to participate in the optional Bobcat Bingo, we will be having the reward for that some time this month. Great work to all who participated!
