Thanks for joining us at our Trunk-or-Treat. We appreciate the PTO for hosting the event, the trunks and all the families who supported the event!

Today was fall service day. We had students from the high school engaging with students in games and activities. They helped with improvements on our playground. We also had WDHS student council lead our Homecoming Assembly! Thank you Western Dubuque High School staff and students!

Tomorrow is our first birthday breakfast where we celebrate August and September birthdays. Each student is welcome to bring one guest to join us for breakfast in the gym. Donuts and juice are served from 7:45-8:05 a.m. All guests must check in at the office.

Each month we have our Bobcat Way assemblies where we recognize students acting the Bobcat Way which means "I am special. I do my best. I am a leader. Together we are safe and kind." We also meet with our Bobcat families which provides opportunities to connect across the building.

Tomorrow is picture day! Please do not wear green.

Picture Day is Wednesday, September 16th. As a reminder, please do not wear green!

🥫 Help us support our Bobcat families! 🎒
