Thank you to everyone who was able to attend our first PTO meeting of the year. We have a
variety of exciting events planned, and many will need volunteers. If you are interested in
helping in any capacity, please remember that each school year you MUST complete a Volunteer
Application and provide a BCI.
To make this easier, we will have a process set up during our Open House next week (Tuesday,
September 16) to assist you with the Volunteer Application (including notary services and
paperwork). Please bring your photo ID and a check or money order (no cash) for $5.00 payable
to BCI.
Our Open House will begin promptly at 5:30 p.m. Families with more than one child will be able
to attend a second session, as all classroom teachers will present twice.
Next week, we are also excited to celebrate International Dot Day! This celebration began
sixteen years ago when a teacher in Iowa noticed the original publishing date of a book he was
reading with his class and decided to celebrate its “birthday.” Since then, Dot Day has become an
international event! The book highlights creativity and encourages everyone to find the courage
to “make their mark.” We have a variety of activities planned, along with a school-wide
assembly on Tuesday afternoon.
As always, please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions or suggestions. Open
communication is key to our community’s success.
Thank you for your ongoing support!
Best regards,
Joseph S. Rotz, Principal
