Message from the Principal
BBE Parents,
I am astonished on how fast this week flew by! We returned from Thanksgiving Break at full speed ahead. We are just two short weeks before the end of the first semester of the school year. Please remember to sign-up for a sack lunch on Early Release day for December 19th. Early release will be at 12:55 and make sure you follow sign-out procedures if you are checking your student out on that day.
Lost items, such as jackets this time of year, are piling up in the cafeteria so be mindful to remind your student to retrieve these items.
As we come to toward the end of the calendar year, I want to take a moment to thank all of you and let you know how much I appreciate the Bear Branch Community. Thank you!
Thank you for trusting us with your students. Bears LEAD the Way! All the Way! Go Bears!
