Today at Del City Elementary, we celebrated our Panther Party! 🐾🎉 Students who met our school-wide expectations for positive behavior were invited to join the celebration. The Panther Party is one of the ways we recognize the effort our students put into being respectful, responsible, and safe throughout the school day. We’re proud of the choices our Panthers make and the way they continue working toward our shared goal of creating a positive and supportive school community. Opportunities like this encourage students to keep practicing the behaviors that help our school be a great place to learn and grow! Way to go, Panthers! 🐾🔴⚫️

Wild week events coming up, join us in the fun!

After our team drove throughout the district this morning, we are ready to be back in school. Welcome back!

The roads aren't perfect. There are still some slick spots in neighborhoods, along with a few intersections near Barnes, Schwartz, and Pleasant Hill Elementary. We encourage families to plan for extra time getting their students to school. Bus routes may run a little more slowly in these areas as well.

We will ask schools to be mindful of these conditions when marking students tardy at the beginning of the school day.

We understand that parents have the ultimate responsibility to decide what's safe for your child. Our school parking lots and sidewalks have been cleared, and we will have warm meals. If you can't get out of your neighborhood, please call your child's absence into their school.

An important message from Dr. Cobb.

Good afternoon -

We have been out driving roads and are seeing some improvement. Of course, better doesn't mean great. The forecast shows temperatures hovering around the freezing mark overnight. Right now, I'm 50/50 on being in school tomorrow. The final decision will be made when my team and I get up early in the morning and test roads in different parts of the district. Our decision will be made by 5:00 am, at which point we will send out messages, either way.

I know that leaves our families and staff in limbo, and I'm sorry for that, but I never take the responsibility of this decision lightly. As much as I'd love to have the right answer right now, I'm going to ask for your patience. The goal is always to teach our students and be safe doing it.

With that in mind, stay warm and safe. Hopefully, we'll see you tomorrow.
