Indigenous People Day!
On Monday, October 9th, 2023, BPS schools will be closed in celebration of Indigenous Peoples' Day!
Attendance is the key to educational success!
Consistent attendance is essential to student success in school. Please be sure that your student attends school daily ready to learn. Students should arrive at school between 8:00-8:30AM in order to avoid being marked tardy. Students must attend school for at least 3 hours to be marked present for the day. Therefore, students may not attend school if they are arriving after 11:30AM. Thank you for your partnership and adherence to this policy.
Fall Family Conferences
We are holding fall conferences with ALL families during the month of October. This is a great chance to speak one-one with your student's teachers and plan for a successful year. Please sign up by reaching out to your student's teachers.

Students from grades 1-6 will be running after school, Mondays October 2 through November 13, 2023 (excluding November 9th) with parents Sherry Eskin and Matthew DeMarris and many other fabulous parent volunteers.Your student will be escorted to the cafeteria when school ends to meet up with all the runners. We’ll all head to the Haley track for a quick snack. Then we’ll warm up, run for 30 minutes, and then stretch out and have a healthy snack post-run. We may have time for free time on the track afterwards. Runners should be picked up at the track promptly at 4:00 PM or be returned to the after school program.
