A message from our Principal

    Dear Robles Bobcat Families,

    I hope this letter finds you well and as excited as we are about the great start to our new school year! It has been wonderful to see all our students back in the classrooms, eager to learn, and enjoying their time here at Robles Elementary. We're off to a fantastic start, and we’re looking forward to a fun and productive year ahead.

    As we settle into our routines, I want to remind everyone about the importance of regular attendance. Missing even a day of school can add up quickly. According to Arizona state requirements, students must attend at least 90% of the school year, which means they shouldn’t miss more than ten days. Let's work together to ensure that your child is here every day, ready to learn and succeed.

    School Hours and Punctuality:
    Please also remember that our school day begins promptly, and students are considered tardy if they arrive after 8:46 a.m. Ensuring your child arrives on time helps them start the day with focus and sets a positive tone for the rest of their learning.

    Homework and Support: 
    In addition to attendance, we ask for your support in helping your child complete their homework each night. Homework reinforces what is learned in the classroom and helps build good study habits. Setting aside a dedicated time and space for homework can make a big difference in your child’s academic progress. If your child struggles with any assignments, please don’t hesitate to reach out to their teacher for guidance.

    Upcoming Events:
    We have some exciting events coming up! School pictures are scheduled for September 4, so make sure your child is ready to smile for the camera. Additionally, teachers will be reaching out soon regarding our upcoming conferences on September 19 and September 20. These conferences are particularly important as we will be halfway through the quarter, providing an excellent opportunity to discuss your child's progress. We are conducting student-led conferences, where your child will present their work and share their achievements with you. It’s essential that you bring your student to the conference so they can take pride in showing you all they’ve accomplished.

    Thank you for your continued support and partnership. We are excited about the year ahead and all the wonderful things we will achieve together.

    Warm regards,

      Dustie Gunn
