Receipt Race
Support the Frisco Rail District and give back to your school. The Frisco Chamber of Commerce invites you to participate in the Receipt Race and help local businesses during construction in the downtown Frisco Area.
How it Works:
- Shop, dine, do business with/buy from any Frisco Rail District business (see the Old Town Commercial map at the link below) between Now and December 31, 2024.
- Save your receipts! Dollar amounts do not matter.
- Turn receipts in Cobb PTA (there will be a drop box in the front office) no later than January 15, 2025. (Digital receipts cannot be accepted and must be printed before being turned in.)
- The PTA with the most receipts can win up to $5,000!
The Cobb Holiday Cookie Exchange is an annual event that lets our teachers take home a variety of holiday treats without spending time in the kitchen. It’s a wonderful way to show our appreciation for everything they do for our children. We need your help! We’re asking each volunteer to contribute 2 dozen cookies (or brownies, cake balls, etc.) and have them delivered to the Cobb office by 8:00 AM on Tuesday, December 17th. Your treats can be homemade or store-bought.
Each house cabin (smaller groups within each house) has a student delegate that was nominated and voted on by their peers. These delegates serve on one of four committees that help run our school! The four student committees are: Principal’s Advisory Committee, Hype Crew, Student Ambassadors, and Cyclone Pride. For the next four weeks, we will highlight one committee and tell you about the work they are currently doing.
This week we celebrate our Principal’s Advisory Committee!
Congratulations to Varish Jayanti ~ our Spelling Bee Winner
Congratulations to our runner-up Arnav Tilekar
Varish and Arnav are both in House Amistad!
A-M-I-STAD, you know who we are, we're the house to beat!
Skills for Living Kroger field trip
Ms. Lay's Skills for Living class walked to Kroger for a comparison shopping field trip.
8th-Grade ILA conducts interviews
This week 8th-grade ILA students were tasked to think of a rule they would like changed and to request a time to interview the person involved with enforcing this rule. They could choose an Administrator (School rules), a teacher (classroom rules), a parent (home rules), etc... They are then using this information with the end result being a formal letter trying to persuade (using ethos, pathos, or logos) that person to change the rule in their favor.
NO DROP OFFS
No parent drop off after 8:25am
**ONLY EXCEPTION IS MEDICATION and EYE GLASSES**
Absences Excuse Notes
Turned in within 3 days after student returns to campus
ID BADGE REQUIRED
This is a safety protocol!
New Parent Portal Information
Frisco ISD has created a NEW PARENT PORTAL where you will be able to view your student's schedule, progress reports, report cards, etc.
Click here for instructions and a video on how to set up your guardian account.
- As holidays approach remember that students only have FOUR parent excused absences per semester.
- Absences over four and not doctor's visits are UNEXCUSED and accrue towards truancy counts and can result in court appearances.
