During the month of February, we had a number of events throughout the school to celebrate Black History month! We especially enjoyed the door decorating contest, and our winner was Ms. Rouse's class' door with an assist from Ms. Riley-Maxwell! Congratulations Ms. Rouse's class!
Hello Team Duval Families!
Bus registration for the 2025-26 school year is now open!
Registration is required for any student riding the bus in the 2025-26 school year – that includes students in self-contained ESE programs.
The earlier you register, the better. Registration forms are in Focus, but you can head to www.duvalschools.org/busregistration first to find simple registration directions.
Best,

Hi Bobcats! Just in case we get another round of freezing weather, let's make sure to take care and come dressed appropriately as we don't want our Bobcats getting cold outside at recess, walking to and from school, waiting at the bus stops or at PE! Check out the image so we can ensure proper clothing for our Nation! If you or know someone who needs a winter jacket, please let your teacher or the front office know, and we can assist with finding proper resources!

Few reminders about report cards and PM2 FAST state testing.
- Paper report cards go home Monday-today.
- Please sign report cards and return immediately.
You can also access report card details in Focus. However, we decided as a school, that a paper copy is another great way to communicate progress. Signed copies are old school, but it holds our bobcats accountable for their work.
This week (Wednesday and Thursday) we have state FAST testing. We need your support. Please give your child a generous breakfast, turn off or take away electronics and have them in bed by 9pm. And give them words of encouragement! Equally important...:BE ON TIME. If they are late they will not be able to test with their class.
WE cannot do this alone. Together we can make a difference!!
Please like and follow us on Facebook so you can share in some of the amazing events that happen at Don Brewer!
