Dear Cheetah Families,
We kindly ask for your support in ensuring that students do not bring squishy toys or any items with soft or gel-like filling to school. While these toys can be fun, we have recently had several instances where they have broken during the school day. When this happens, the sticky filling creates a mess that is very difficult to clean from classroom surfaces and clothing, and it also poses a risk of damaging Chromebooks and other instructional materials.
To help us maintain a clean and safe learning environment for all students, we ask that these types of items be kept at home.
Thank you for your understanding and continued partnership!

Dear 5th Grade Families,
Our FSA would like to remind you about our upcoming 5th Grade “Glow Up” Dance on Friday, April 24th from 6:00–8:00 PM!
This special evening is more than just a dance—it’s a fun-filled event for our school community. In addition to dancing, there will be photo booths, food, desserts, goodies, and more to enjoy.
Please note the following important details:
Each child must be accompanied by a parent/guardian
Each couple will receive two food truck meals
No tickets will be sold at the door the night of the event
Fliers were sent home prior to Spring Break, but if you did not receive one, a copy is attached here. Please return these to school with your payment (or use Venmo) no later than Wednesday, April 15th!
We’re looking forward to a memorable night celebrating our 5th graders as they prepare to move on to middle school!
If you have any questions, please feel free to email the FSA at chewscheetahs@gmail.com

Cheetah Families,
We would like to share a friendly reminder regarding student use of smartphones and watches during the school day. Smartwatches will be treated the same as cell phones, with the expectation that they remain off and away at all times while students are in school.
To help minimize distractions and support a focused learning environment, smartphones and watches must be kept in students’ bookbags or, preferably, left at home.
We appreciate your partnership in reinforcing this expectation and helping us maintain a positive and productive school day for all students.
