August 30th-September 3rd

Dear Blue Oaks Families! 

It is so hard to believe we are heading into September! We are off to a strong start and are well positioned to continue. I wanted to take a moment to thank those of you that attended our Chipotle fundraiser. We truly appreciate all of you that support our school.  Last week we also had picture day and it went great! I can't wait to see all the pictures.  We have also had great success so far with the dance-a-thon! Keep it up bears! 

Thank you all for your support! 

Mrs. Cumbra

August 23-August 27

 

Dear Blue Oaks Bear Families, 

It is hard to believe we are entering into our third week of school. I am so grateful to see all our students' faces as they come to school each day ready to learn and have fun! As we continue through the month of August, please remind your student to always be safe, respectful and responsible.  Our teachers will be reviewing our Bear Necessities and how to follow them throughout our campus.   We had our first Bear Hug store on Friday and it was a blast! the students are very respectful as they celebrate their peers that got picked to go to the bear hug store.  They love choosing the items.
Thank you for all your support, 
Mrs. Cumbra

First Week Done!

 Dear Blue Oaks Bear Families, 

We have had a great first full week of school! Thank you for attending Back to School Night. If you have any questions, please reach out to your child's teacher.  We have had many new faces join Blue Oaks and we are very excited our school keeps growing. It has been great having the opportunity to meet many of you during pick up and drop off, and Back to School Night. Please continue to come and introduce yourself to me! I would love to meet you all! I have thoroughly enjoyed getting to know all our students and visit them while they are learning in their classrooms, in the Bear's Lair or playing on the playground. 

I know this school year will be a great one!
