Beneke Blast

Dear Parents,

Please make sure you review the calendar of events so you don't miss any of the exciting events happening at Beneke!

Be sure to sign up for the Family Feast! https://forms.gle/cLc4MmsxASpNJYxb6

Every school day counts! Regular attendance is one of the most important factors in your child’s academic success. When students are present, they are actively engaged in learning, building strong relationships, and growing in confidence and knowledge.

We are excited to announce our Attendance Challenge!
From November 10-December 19, the grade level with the highest attendance will win a pizza party with the principal.

Let’s work together to make sure all students are at school and ready to learn each day. Every student, every day, makes a difference!

Right now 3rd Grade is in the lead!

Thank you for your continued support in helping our students show up, stay engaged, and succeed.

Queridas familias,

¡Por favor revisen el calendario de eventos para que no se pierdan ninguna de las actividades emocionantes que están ocurriendo en Beneke!

¡Asegúrense de inscribirse para el Family Feast! https://forms.gle/cLc4MmsxASpNJYxb6

¡Cada día escolar cuenta! La asistencia regular es uno de los factores más importantes para el éxito académico de su hijo. Cuando los estudiantes están presentes, participan activamente en el aprendizaje, construyen relaciones sólidas y crecen en confianza y conocimiento.

¡Estamos emocionados de anunciar nuestro Reto de Asistencia!
Del 10 de noviembre al 19 de diciembre, ¡el nivel de grado con la asistencia más alta ganará una fiesta de pizza con la directora!

Trabajemos juntos para asegurarnos de que todos los estudiantes vengan a la escuela y estén listos para aprender cada día. ¡Cada estudiante, cada día, hace la diferencia!

En este momento, ¡3.º grado va en primer lugar!

Gracias por su continuo apoyo para ayudar a nuestros estudiantes a asistir, participar y tener éxito.
