Barton Bobcats
Bobcats,
I hope that our 6th grade Bobcats enjoyed their first Paws For Fun experience. As always a BIG Thank You goes to our amazing PTA who served concessions for our Bobcats. We have some upcoming events that I will list at the bottom of each weekly blurb so families can plan ahead. We also finally got training on our new marquee so look forward to something more than the Date and Time being posted. I will share info in the next couple of weeks because we will start selling Birthday shout-outs on the marquee for your Bobcats if families are interested as well.
Upcoming Events
9/17- Pep Rally- Paws For Fun schedule
9/17- Football 8th grade- Chapa
9/18-9/20- 7th Grade at Camp Champions

Living The Dream,
Mr. Loyd
Bobcat Parents,
If your child receives 504 services, please read the following blurb for key information regarding 504's for the 2024-2025 school year.
It is time for our Bobcat's annual 504 meetings to begin as we start the new school year. Parents, at the middle school level, 504's are completed during the Bobcat's 7th-grade year. Please note, that a 504 meeting can be requested at any time during the instructional school year if needed or concerns begin to occur regarding accommodations. All meetings require a General Education teacher to attend so they must be scheduled during the school day from 8:10 a.m.- 3:45 p.m. The conference times of teachers vary and I will be scheduling the meeting with a specific teacher to provide teachers enough time to adjust their teaching schedule for the 504 meetings that will be conducted. Please keep in mind, meetings occur via ZOOM and you can opt to not attend; I will email you the updated documents after the meeting is concluded. Again, I look forward to meeting you and "Living The Dream!"
I will be contacting parents of 7th graders next week to begin scheduling 504 meetings. Thank you in advance and I look forward to our meeting this year.
