Cold weather can be a trigger for asthma. Other asthma triggers include exercise, allergens such as dust mites, pollen, or mold, pet dander, colds/flu, or odors such as perfume, cigarette smoke, or smoke from burning wood. If your child uses a rescue inhaler, please make sure the school nurse has one at school in case it is needed. Talk to your child’s doctor and update their Asthma Treatment Plan if needed. Please ensure the school nurse has an updated copy of your child’s Asthma Treatment Plan. A copy of this form can be found on the district webpage under the Parents tab, Health Services, and Health Forms. Please call the nurse with any further questions at 732-269-2909, ext. 2005.

Each month Mrs. Finamore will choose students throughout the school to be the Artists of the Month. They will have their work displayed for the month and recognized below! Great job students!

Teachers will continue to use their classroom Remind to update and inform parents of all pertinent information throughout the 2019-2020 school year.

At BTES we have decided to create a user friendly cell phone rule. When students bring their phones to school, they should be set off and kept in their bookbag during the school day. When riding the bus, the students may use their phones for music ONLY! There should be no games, calling, texting, photographing, or video taping on the bus. While using their phones for music they MUST ALSO have an earbud in one ear, leaving the other ear open for messages or announcements.

If this rule is not followed, we will be forced to eliminate the use of all phones while on school property.

Thank you for your continued support.

Each month we will hide the word "BULLDOG" in the newsletter somewhere that it does NOT belong. The word may show up in other places but it would be used properly there. Check below for an example. When you find it, come see us in the main office and let us know where you found it to win a prize!

Used correctly - "Thanks for all the students and staff who support the bulldog bistro!"

Used incorrectly - "We are excited bulldog for all of the fun events planned for this year!"

Have fun and look closely!!!
