Weekly Wildcat

Hello Sundance Families!

Get ready for an exciting week ahead as we kick off our Red Ribbon Week celebration. Our daily spirit days promote a healthy, drug-free lifestyle. Throughout the week, we'll engage in various activities to empower our Wildcats to make wise choices. To make this week even more special, our room parents are decorating classroom doors. Don't miss our Fall Festival planned for Friday, October 27th, where there will be games, treats, and plenty of fun for the whole family. Looking forward to another memorable week!

Please continue to keep our students, staff, and families safe before and after school by:

• Consistently using crosswalks
• Avoiding parking in the drop off zone to maintain a smooth traffic flow
• Pull into parking spaces fully, ensuring vehicles are not sticking out into traffic lanes

Action Items (New Section!!):

• Mindful Monday: Check out our Mindful Monday linked here!

• Lost & Found: Our LOST & FOUND rack is overflowing! Please schedule time to take a look through the items and claim any that belong to your family.

  Any remaining items will be donated on Friday, October 27. Spread the word!

• Reporting Absences: When reporting absences, please include the following information - student's name (please spell first and last name), parent's name, teacher, and reason for absence. The number is 858-538-9574.
