We Are BEARS – Be Excited About Reading in Schools!
Back to School Night Success
Thank you to everyone who joined us for Back to School Night 2025! We had a fantastic turnout, and it was the perfect way to kick off our academic year together. The energy in the building was incredible, and it was so meaningful to connect with families, share our goals, and highlight the partnership between home and school. Your involvement sends a powerful message to our students—that their education matters and we are united in supporting their success.
Restricted List – Effective October 1
At Back to School Night, Dr. Cook reviewed our Restricted List Policy, which will go into effect on October 1, 2025.
The Restricted List is designed to promote fairness, accountability, and school spirit by tying participation in special events to academic, attendance, and behavior expectations. Students may be restricted if they:
Receive failing grades (F or U) or more than 1 D/S- on a report card
Have more than 4 unexcused absences or 6 lates/early dismissals in a marking period
Receive 1 major referral, 3 minor referrals, or any suspension in a marking period
The Restricted List will be reviewed before key events such as dances, parades, field trips, and school-wide celebrations. Families will be notified if a student is placed on the list, and an appeals process is available.
Our yearly theme is We are BEARS - (Be Excited About Reading in School)
Our Mission is Then, Now, Always Family!
Our Vision is We believe that a happy child is a successful one. We are committed to providing a positive, safe and stimulating environment for children to learn, where all are valued.

October 6–10: Week of Respect (District), Banned Books Week, & Fire Prevention Week
Last week marked our first full week of school, and our Bacon Bears are already getting into the rhythm of their daily routines. On Thursday, our students and staff proudly wore red, white, and blue to honor Patriot Day, showing their respect and remembrance for this important day in our nation’s history. It was wonderful to see our school community come together in unity and spirit.
Back to School Night – Tuesday, September 16 (6:00–7:00 PM)
We are thrilled to welcome families to our annual Back to School Night this Tuesday from 6:00 to 7:00 PM.
Back to School Night is one of the most important events of the year—it’s a chance to build a strong partnership between school and home. When families and educators work together, children benefit from a powerful support system that helps them grow academically, socially, and emotionally. This evening allows you to:
Meet your child’s teachers and support staff
Learn about classroom routines, expectations, and curriculum
Understand how to best support your child’s learning at home
Ask questions, build relationships, and join our vibrant school community
Your presence sends a powerful message to your child: “Your education matters, and we are in this together.” We hope to see all our families on Tuesday evening as we kick off a fantastic school year!
