Good Afternoon Colt Families!
We had a great first full week of school!! We appreciated ELHS football and cheerleaders greeting us this morning and wish them all the best tonight in their first official game of the season!

Good Evening!
We have had a great first two days of school! Thank you for your patience as we work out car riders and bus routes.
Next Monday, only Kindergarten parents may walk their students into the building. Thank you for your help with this!
Car riders- if you need your new car rider number, please be sure to reach out to your child's teacher or call the front office to ask for the number. This will help with traffic flow in the afternoon tremendously. Also, please make sure your child knows the number and what the number looks like.
Bus riders- Please remind your students to be paying attention to when their stop is coming up. This will move our routes along more quickly in the afternoons.
If you have any transportation changes, please message your child's teacher through the LCSNC App and by calling the school. ALL changes must be made before 2:15. If you need any bus information, please call Mrs. Westbrook.
We are focusing on Habit 1 in Leader in Me! See the graphic below for a few reminders of things we are talking about in class!

Good Morning Families!
We want you to enjoy these last few weeks of summer, but wanted you to have some information as we head into the last days of July and early August! Please see the link below for a family newsletter with information, dates, new staff introductions, etc. There also is a 30 second 2-question survey at the end if you wouldn't mind completing that for us as well!

Good Morning Colt Families!
We hope you are enjoying your summer! I am excited to be joining you this year as Principal of Catawba Springs. I spent my Kindergarten through Second Grade years here and love this community. I graduated from Appalachian State University with a BS in Elementary Education, a Master's Degree in Reading Education, and a Graduate Certificate in School Leadership. This is my 20th year in education and I am grateful for the opportunity to serve the Catawba Springs Community. My husband and two daughters and I live nearby and enjoy spending time with friends, family, and time outdoors! I look forward to meeting each of your families and working with you this school year. Please see the graphic below for some upcoming opportunities- the first being Popsicles with the Principal on July 24th from 4:30-6pm. We are excited to see you soon!
Regards,
Mrs. Kristen Reynolds
