Hello Bulldog Families!

This week is a busy one at Bexley Elementary School! Students can look forward to spending their Bow Wows as we recognize how they have followed our school wide behavior expectations. Students with Car Rider and Hiker Biker Bow Wows can spend these at a special cart that will be at our main gate during arrival on Wednesday. Students with Bus Bow Wows can spend these at a special cart on Friday morning. Students with ANY Bow Wows can spend these at the Bow Wow Bucks Boutique during the day on Thursday. 🐾

Weekly Agenda
Tuesday: Pride of the Pack 
Wednesday: Girls on the Run, PTO Fundraiser Kickoff
Thursday: Fall Picture Day, Bow Wow Bucks Boutique opens
Friday: Girls on the Run, Custodial Appreciation Day

Coming Next Week:
10/9 End of Quarter 1

We do have several reminders that are critical to our success. We will continue to include these in our weekly email as we address these issues on campus.

Car Riders

• Please bring your dismissal tag every day for drop off and pick up. Remember to take it down from your mirror as soon as your child is unloaded at arrival or loaded at dismissal.
• Please refrain from being on your cell phone in the car rider line. 
• Arrival - We will begin closing the car rider line at 9:40 am each morning. If you arrive after that time, please plan to park and walk your child into the office.

Hiker/Bikers

• If your child is a Hiker/Biker STOP, please bring your dismissal tag every day to pick up. 
• Please remind your “bikers” that they must walk their bike/skateboard/scooter on to and off of our Bexley campus, and wear helmets everyday.

Dismissal

• If you plan to change your child's dismissal, this must occur before 2:30 pm at this link: https://bes.pasco.k12.fl.us/mform/view.php?id=13355
• If you plan to pick up your child early, this must occur before 3:00 pm. 
• Car line dismissal - if your child is delayed getting to the numbered pole during dismissal, we will ask you to pull up to the yellow cone in front of the car lanes, and your child will be escorted to your vehicle. 

Absences

• If your child is absent, please be sure to report this through your parent portal. 
• For step-by-step instructions and helpful resources, please visit: 👉 www.pasco.k12.fl.us/attendance/absence 

Please remind your Bulldog of our school expectations every day.

• Be respectful.
• Be responsible.
• Be safe.

We love our families to visit our campus, and want to remind you that you must bring your ID every time. Help us keep our Bulldogs safe.

We look forward to seeing you this week!

With Bulldog Pride,
Vanessa Hilton
Principal
Bexley Elementary School
