Minute by Minute News

Thank you to PFK and all of the parents that donated towards our fall class parties and K-2 Fall Family Event. Everyone had a blast! It is wonderful to have Bunker Hill families that are so supportive of our school.

Despite Tuesday being Halloween, we should have a pretty normal school week. Since we dressed up today, we will not be dressing in costumes on Tuesday. Students can always wear festive shirts or orange and black.

Veterans from the Bunker Hill American Legion will be at Wolf Ridge at 8:00AM for a special flag raising ceremony. We will also be serving breakfast to all Veterans in attendance on this morning in the Wolf Ridge library.

Everyone is invited to a special program to honor our Veterans at BHHS on November 9th at 2:00PM.

1st quarter report cards are ready for viewing/printing in Teacher Ease. You can go to www.teacherease.com or use the app. If using the app, click on "more" at the bottom and then "report card". If you need any help accessing your child's report card, please email sronen@bhcusd.org or call the office at 618-585-4831. Email your child's teacher if you have any concerns about your child's progress.

There will be an early dismissal on November 10th at 12:30. We are trying something really neat and new for 3rd-7th grade students on this day. Students will get the opportunity to select from 13 different topics to learn about on this day. They will take a survey next week to provide us with their top three choices. Each 3rd-7th grade teacher has planned a project based learning experience for our students to learn all about a topic that interests them. Students will take part in questioning, research and innovation for a final project to demonstrate what they learned. This will take place from 8:30-10:30 with us all meeting back in the gym at 10:30 to share what each group learned. If it all goes well, we might do it again for another half-day. Your child will not want to miss this learning experience!

Even though out back-to-school sale is now over, you can still always order your Minutemaids and Minutemen spiritwear from the links below anytime. One link is for Minutemen gear and the other is for Minutemaids gear.

PFK will host fall class parties on this day in the afternoon between 1:30-3:00PM. Students can dress in costume today or wear orange and black. We will parade around our gymnasium to show off our costumes just before class parties at 1:00PM. Family members are invited to watch in the bleachers.

Our Wolf Ridge Student Council is hosting a chili dinner for all Veterans on this evening. Please share!

We will honor our Veterans on this day and teach students about Veterans Day and the respect we should show those who serve and have served our country.

Students will be dismissed early on this day. This will also be P.B.L (Project Based Learning) Day for 3rd-7th!
