Bogan Weekly News

Happy Friday!

We had our Read-A-Thon Pie Assembly today. Our students LOVED watching their teachers get pied. Overall, our participants read 9,571 minutes and we raised $3,110.50! This money goes a long way towards providing memorable opportunities for our Bogan students. Thank you for your continued support!

We have 2 weeks until winter break. Teachers have a lot of exciting activities planned and we even have a building-wide Polar Express Movie Party planned! Please see below for our spirit week that starts on December 15th.

Have a great weekend!

Sincerely,

Dr. Kirsten Cannon, Principal

Our lost and found is filling up! Please encourage your student to visit the lost and found if they have misplaced a lunchbox or article of clothing.

Any items not claimed by winter break will be donated.

Also, please make sure your child's name is written on the tag so that we can ensure lost items get back to students. Thank you!

We are starting yearbook sales early this year! Please use the link below and the code to order your yearbook!

Big Brothers Big Sisters is back again this year! Please click the photo if you are interested in signing up your student!

The PAX Good Behavior Game is a research-based classroom strategy that helps children make positive choices, and collaborate with others. It supports a calmer, more focused learning environment by promoting kindness, teamwork, and respectful behavior.

As a reminder, you are able to add funds to your student's lunch account through the PaySchool Central. If your student's account reaches -$50 it will be rolled into your school fees. Please be mindful and keep your student's account current.

Here are the breakfast and lunch menus for December!

Hello parents and guardians! Our career day was a success! Students enjoyed rotating between stations and learning about careers that they had chosen. There were a lot of smiles and laughter, and students had a lot of great questions for our volunteers. We are already thinking about next year! :)

Outside of career day, we have been busy in all grades learning about emotions and feelings and how those have a story to tell about what we are experiencing. We are learning coping skills and learning how to identify when friends are feeling big emotions without actually using the words.

We continue to work on our building wide PBIS expectations and we have been focusing on the theme of safety in November. Students continue to earn their Bogan Brave tickets for character traits we have already learned and it is exciting to see their faces when they receive tickets and get to turn them in. They love the positive recognition for being a leader!

As a reminder, if your student needs anything at all, please don’t hesitate to reach out! I can be reached at the following contact information:

There is also a google form you can complete and I can follow up with details on support for your student.

Hi Bogan Families!

Cold and flu season are officially here and I wanted to share with you the guidelines on when to keep your sick children at home. This chart touches on more than just cold and flu but is a good reminder to all when we need to stay home and when we are able to return back to school.

Please be sure if your child is out sick to call and let our attendance line know they will not be at school. Also, if your child has a doctor's note for excused days, have your child drop that off to the front office.

Please click the photo below for information from the CDC.
