8/3/20 - Bancroft Bobcat News!
Can you believe it is August already?! The start of school is just 2 weeks away. We are all waiting to find out more concrete details - know that there will be a wealth of information coming from the District and the School over the coming week as they prepare to share updated Info Days procedures, class assignments, and connect virtually with parents and students for the beginning of school.
The PFC Board has been meeting over the summer to strategize our digital role. We are working hard to find new and unique ways to engage as a community when we are so used to seeing each other on campus each day. We need your support! Please join our virtual meetings, and bring your ideas. We need volunteers to help us rethink fundraisers and activities as we remain at home, or as large group gatherings are still prohibited. Our Dollar-A-Day annual giving campaign will be even more critical this year as our biggest fundraising opportunity. See below for more on our new principal and some changes for the start of school.
Meet our New Principal!
Additionally, we have been meeting with our new Principal! Cindy Dunn's first day as Bancroft Principal is today, Monday, August 3rd, but rest assured that she has already been hard at work for the last 3 weeks coordinating with other local elementary principals and school/district staff. Parents will have the opportunity to have a "Meet & Greet" with Ms. Dunn at our first PFC meeting in August (anticipated 8/25) and through virtual back to school nights, but in the meantime, we asked Mrs. Dunn to tell us a little bit about herself: |
Tell us about your career thus far?
I've been in education for 24 years. Taught in both middle and elementary school for 17 years, then moved into administration. I was an Assistant Principal in Glendale and Murrietta before becoming a principal in Twenty Nine Palms for 4 years.
Additional Information - be in the know!
The PFC Board is working hard to set up our online donation portal and future store through Konstella. Spirit wear and birthday book logistics are still being worked through, so additional information on how to purchase those will come after the first day of school.
We will continue to utilize Konstella and facebook (@BancroftPFC) in addition to our website to provide as much information as we can in a timely fashion. We will also do our best to respond to your questions and communications as quick as possible, but bear with us as we are all volunteer parents working from home and navigating this new adventure just like all of you.
