The Bulldog Newsbites

Picture retakes will be on Thursday, October 24. This will be for any student who did not have pictures taken earlier this month or who would like to take their picture over again.

This Friday we will celebrate students who had at least 95% attendance during the first 9 weeks. Ninety-five percent attendance means a student did not have more than 2 absences.

Elementary students will celebrate with an ice cream party.

Secondary students will have their names entered into a drawing for gift cards. Secondary students can have their names entered up to 10 times.

95% attendance---one entry

98% attendance--5 entries

100% attendance--10 entries
