Good evening, Tiger Families! This is Mrs. Hazelwood calling with Tiger news! First off, thank you families for supporting our $1 raffle ticket fundraiser. With your help, our final total was over $12,000! That is amazing! This money will be used for continuous school improvement and resources for teachers and students! This week is Book Fair Week! Students are welcome to shop for books in our media center! Parents may come in and shop with their child after school each day until 3:30. Monday, September 11th is Grounded Coffee Spirit Day! Stop by one of our favorite coffee shops and let them know you are there to support Dobson Elementary! A percentage of the profit goes to our school. Our student leaders of the month will celebrate on Wednesday with Mr. King. We are proud of our tigers leading self! On Thursday, progress reports will go home. Sit down with your child and set goals for the remainder of the quarter. On Thursday, student council will meet. Please send a note if your child plans to stay. Finally, there is no school on Friday, September 15th due to a teacher workday. Thank you in advance for reading with your child each night. Our first semester reading trip will be in December. We are setting goals for reading in class each day. Encourage your child to find a book to enjoy! Have a wonderful week! Good night!
We had lots of fun things going on today relating to our Raffle Ticket Fundraiser! Students who sold 10 books of tickets were invited to an ice cream party this afternoon with Mrs. Hazelwood. What a reward! 🍦

These tigers enjoyed popsicles and time at the park with Mrs. Queen for showing leadership on the bus and following expectations! 🚍🤩
This morning, students AND staff participated in "D.E.A.R." time. This meant that everyone dropped what they were doing, grabbed a book, and started reading for 20 minutes. Not only does this encourage our tigers to associate positivity with literature and the act of reading, but also to make it a priority for themselves. Great job, tigers! 🧡 #ThriveSCS #DEAR
Grounded Coffee Spirit Day!

Mr. King taught a lesson to Mrs. Coe's class about following rules. They practiced doing so by playing "Simon Says"!
Just a reminder that our very first ROAR celebration will be tomorrow, and it is Water Day! This will be for students who have shown ROAR leadership during this first month of school. Please be sure that your child wears sunscreen and brings both a towel and a change of clothes! 💦🤿☀️
We are also still in need of volunteers for some of the water stations. Please contact the school or your child's teacher if you are interested in helping with this fun celebration!
