Wrangler Newsletters

As basketball season kicks off, we want to remind everyone of the eligibility requirements to participate or attend games. Students with any failing grades (F's), no valid school ID, or more than two disciplinary infractions (DI's) will not be permitted to participate or attend. Let's strive for success in the classroom and demonstrate positive behavior to enjoy the excitement of the season together!

Feb. 24th - PTO Meeting

Parents, our students' safety is our top priority! When dropping your students off in circle drive during the morning, we will have two lanes running, the first lane being the inner right lane and the middle lane. These lanes need to be moving continuously. If you cannot quickly drop your student off, please pull all the way through to the parking lot and park. Please be mindful of students exiting cars. Due to parents blocking the dentist office and Tyler Road police will be patrolling and issuing tickets. Please be mindful.

After school pickup, we can only have one lane filled. The middle and outer lanes must not have cars in them. This is for traffic to continue to the parking lot to park and pick up kids. If you are exiting on Tyler, you must only turn right. If these two rules are not being followed, we will have law enforcement out to ticket. You may also park in the back of the building, not blocking the bus circle, or on Second Street or in neighborhood streets. You may not park across the street at the dentist, McDonald's, or Braum's. They will be contacting law enforcement as well.

Happy New Year, Wranglers! I hope your winter break was filled with joy, relaxation, and time with loved ones. As we return this January, it’s the perfect time to refocus on our goals and gear up for a strong second half of the school year. This year, we are laser-focused on two key areas: attendance and math achievement. Every day in class counts toward reaching our full potential, and consistent attendance is a vital part of our success. Let’s make it our mission to be present and ready to learn each day. In math, we are striving to build strong foundational skills and push ourselves toward mastery. With teamwork, determination, and a growth mindset, we know we can achieve great things! Together, let’s keep building momentum and make the rest of the year one of growth, achievement, and Wrangler pride. Let’s make it count!

Our next Go Do It day will be here soon! Go Do It days are an opportunity for us to build relationships and have some non-academic fun with our Wrangler Students! Students that have reached our goal of 90% or higher in daily attendance, will select an activity that they are passionate about and participate in during this day. Go Do It days follow an activity schedule, so all activities happen within the school day. This year’s goals will be centered around attendance (Q1 & Q3: tardies; Q2 & Q4: attendance) so keep encouraging students to be here and be here on time! Students who do not reach the goal for the quarter will be assigned to a study hall. We will have this celebration with students on Dec. 19th starting at 2:07pm.

Parents, we need your help!

As part of our morning announcements, we remind students daily to keep their hands, feet, and body to themselves at all times. We also emphasize the importance of reporting any incidents to the nearest adult rather than taking matters into their own hands. Unfortunately, we've seen an increase in horseplay and fighting, which is simply not tolerated. We are following Board of Education (BOE) policies and taking swift actions in response to these behaviors. In addition, we will not allow video recording or encouraging these actions in any way. We kindly ask you to have a conversation at home with your children about the importance of respectful and safe behavior at school. Together, we can ensure a positive and productive learning environment for all students. Thank you for your continued support.

Parents, we need your help! We have many substitutes in our building daily. It is our expectation that they are respected just as any other adult in our building. Student’s names who are left by a sub will owe a full week of lunch detention.

We want to thank those students last week that acted quickly and reported concerns. Please remind your kids of the importance of “If you hear something, say something!”
