Mrs Coy’s 2nd Graders Things are GREAT in Room 8! We are off to an AMAZING start in Mrs. Coy’s 2nd grade class! Students have done a great job with our school-wide expectations and have shown a huge interest in the second grade curriculum. This quarter we will be learning about animals and their habitats, safety (including fire safety, playground safety, and stranger danger), and addition and subtraction strategies. We will also be diving into our new handwriting, spelling and reading curriculums. Make sure that your student is reading on a daily basis and practicing some basic math facts. Flashcards are a great way to practice!
IMPORTANT!!!
If you would like a paper copy of the Panther Tales Newsletter, please let the office know.

Congratulations to Mrs. Helmick’s
Kindergarten Class Panther Pride Classroom of the Week!
Here are a few reminders to help keep the school year running
smoothly.
• Please check in with the office after you are buzzed in every time you come into the building. We want to be able to greet you and be aware of who is in our building at all times.
• Students enter and exit the building through
their assigned grade level doors. This keeps us from having congested hallways and doors during those busy times.
• School hours: 8:00 a.m. -‐ 3:10 p.m. Students
should not be arriving before 7:50 a.m. unless they are eating breakfast. Breakfast starts at 7:30 a.m. and ends at 7:50 a.m.
• If your child will be absent or tardy for any
reason, please call the office at 402-‐293-‐4510 and let us know, otherwise we will call you.
Belleaire Carnival
Please join us for a night of fun at the Belleaire Carnival. There will be fun for all ages with some new fall games.

DROP OFF/PICK-‐UP LANE
The pick-‐up lane must remain clear before 2:40 p.m. Preschool buses will be picking up students at 2:30 and need clear access to the front. Students should load into vehicles when cars in the pick-‐up lane are completely stopped. Please do not drive around other cars to move ahead in line. Vehicles in front of the line will be encouraged to move up when there is room to do so. Please remember not to park in the bus/pick-‐up lane to enter the building or to wait outside of an exit door. If you are dropping your child off or picking up your child, please park in a stall on the east side of the building. If you are parking in the east parking lot and waiting for your child to make his/her way to your vehicle, please make sure that your child is not crossing in-‐between cars in the pick-‐up lane. For their safety, students are required to use the crosswalks at all times. Drivers are asked to TURN ON BLINKERS when ready to exit the pick-‐up lane, so that staff may assist in securing a safe departure. If you have any questions feel free to contact us!
A Note From Mrs. Jeanetta It has been really wonderful seeing everyone after the summer break. Those of you that have seen me at different stores know that I always ask, "What are you reading?" This year, I will be getting to work with even more students in different classrooms, so have your answer ready. I am just finishing The Time Traveler's Wife. It is a really good adult fiction book. Any suggestions for what I should read next? Keep reading & hope to see you at the Bellevue Library.
Panther PRIDE
Please make sure to speak with your child about the importance of showing his/her
Panther Pride each day at school.
