BPES Little Titans Newsletter

Dear Families-

We had a wonderful Staff Appreciation Week at BPE! Our staff works incredibly hard each and every day, and they are so dedicated to our students and families. It was so nice to take time this week to let them know that all of their hard work and commitment do not go unnoticed.

Our first-ever BPE Talent Show was also a huge success! The students did an amazing job showcasing their talents, confidence, and creativity. We are so proud of each and every one of them for their courage and participation.

Next week we will be holding our Field Day! If you signed up to volunteer at a station, we look forward to having you join us for this fun-filled day.

Please be sure to review the important dates listed in the newsletter, as there is so much taking place during these final weeks of school.

I am looking forward to returning on May 18. See you all soon!

Mrs Schneid

BPE Field Day Volunteers 2026

Please review the available grade level time and activity slots in the link below. Click on the button to sign up and provided contact information. This year we are asking you to choose the activity station you'd like to run before showing up on Field Day. By signing up you are committing to volunteer and we will see you at your selected time slot. Volunteers will be running one station during their selected time. Parents/Guardians will NOT travel from station to station with their student.

We also ask that if you are volunteering that you:

* Do not bring younger students, as you will be activitly running a station during your time

* All adults must be dressed appropriately for a school event- if they are not, they will be asked to leave

* You will need your license on that day to participate as a volunteer as it will be ran through our system to print your vistor badge.

If you have been in the builidng to volunteer recently, you will most likely be in the system. You should call the office and talke to Mrs Homchik to be sure your are in the system.

Coming up PRIOR to have your license ran through our system is highly recommeneded, as it saves time on the Field Day.

* If adults/guardians that are signed up volunetters for Field Day are signed up to actively assist and run a station- we do not have adults/guardians attend Field Day as specatators.
