Attend to Achieve: Students Must Be Here to Learn!
When your student is absent from school, they miss important instruction that is very difficult to recover. When students have a fever, a rash, or have vomiting or diarrhea, they need to stay home. If getting your child to school represents a challenge, please let us know. We have strategies to help.
The Cougar PAWS store is in need of more rewards.
Our students work hard and we like to reward them for their hard work! They can earn Cougar cards for Practicing Personal Best, Acting Responsibly, Working and Playing Safely, and Showing Respect! These cards can be redeemed in our Cougar PAWS store on Tuesdays and Fridays during recess and students love to shop for fun rewards!
Our Cougar PAWS store is in need of rewards for our students. If you have left over (new) party favors, or small trinkets that are cluttering your home, we would love to have them for our Cougar PAWS store. Please feel free to bring them to the office and we will get them to the store. If you are looking for a fun way to help without spending too much time, you can order PAWS store items from our Amazon Wish List.
If you love helping children and have an hour to spare once or twice a week, consider being a PAWS store volunteer. We need parents to help our students with "purchases" in the store. Please email Mrs. Mulcahy (tmulcahy@pylusd.org) if you are interested!
