Message from Mrs. Schneid
Dear BPE Families-
As we wrap up the 2025–2026 school year, we cannot believe there are only 3 days left! We would love to see all of our Little Titans finish the year strong with 100% attendance in every classroom. Every day matters, and we look forward to celebrating together through the very last day of school.
Students will be bringing home items on Tuesday and Wednesday, so please be on the lookout for papers, supplies, artwork, and other classroom materials coming home. There is no need for students in 3rd and 4th grade to bring a book bag on the last day of school.
We have posted important dates for the 2026–2027 school year below, so be sure to mark your calendars as you begin planning for next year.
This school year has been filled with so much academic growth, learning, and success. We are incredibly proud of all the hard work, perseverance, and accomplishments of our Little Titans. Thank you to our families for your continued support, partnership, and positivity throughout the year. We truly appreciate all you do to help make BPE such a special school community.
We will send out one final newsletter at the end of this week with additional end-of-year information and celebrations.
Mrs .Schneid
Principal
