Have a great week,

Our school will be administering the mySAEBRS universal screener through FastBridge the week of September 7th. mySAEBRS is taken by students in grades 3-12 and takes approximately 5 minutes to complete. mySAEBRS (my Social, Academic, and Emotional Behavior Risk Screener) is a brief tool for screening students to identify those who may benefit from social-emotional behavior (SEB) supports.

We believe this survey is a valuable tool because mySAEBRS can be used to identify students who may be at risk for social, academic, and emotional behaviors. By evaluating, in which of the three specific domains a student may be at risk, we may determine what type of supports are most appropriate. For example, if a student may benefit from emotional supports, then we may target emotional behaviors via the application of social-emotional learning (SEL) programs. As a school, our goal is to always communicate with the family when we provide additional tiered supports for our students.

Participation is voluntary and you or your child may decline to participate. However, we believe participation is important. This data is a helpful piece in identifying needs and providing timely support and resources. More information can be found at: https://www.illuminateed.com/products/fastbridge/social-emotional-behavior-assessment/mysaebrs/

Before parents provide consent, we request that they open and review the document mySAEBRS screening tool.

If you want your student to participate, please provide consent by September 7, 2025. The five-minute screener will be given to students who have parental consent by September 9, 2025.

You only need to fill this out if you WANT your child to participate. Anyone without a form will not be given the screener!

Vision Screenings are scheduled for the week of September 8th.

3rd grade, 5th grade, and IEP/504 students will have their vision checked by the nurse.

Please email Nurse Candice at prothec@usd416.org if you do not want your child to have their vision screened. This will OPT OUT your child.

Hearing Screening will begin near the end of September.

3rd grade and IEP/504 students will have their hearing checked by the nurse.

Please email Nurse Candice at prothec@usd416.org if you do not want your child to have their hearing screened. This will OPT OUT your child.

This week we begin talking about the mindset, WE ARE CONNECTED! This mindset gets us thinking about embracing everyone, noticing the relationships that make you better, identifying your 'dream team' and leading with value. This is a great time to talk to your student about their friendships or relationships with others ~ how do they contribute to them, who makes them feel good about themselves, what can they do to help others? We have a Wildcat family - we cheer for purple. We have our BES family - we all deserve to come to school and feel safe and welcomed. We have classroom families - we work together

to make this a place to learn and become our best.

Together, we are better!

Hey Families! Please be sure your child is in appropriate footwear every day at school. The flip-flops, boots, or crocs do not work for PE class and our expectations. They also cause injuries at PE and at recess. If you have any questions, please reach out to myself or Mrs. Apple. We will be contacting families if students do not have what they need to participate.

In an effort to keep everyone safe as they travel into the football stadium complex and to keep

the traffic flow moving, the district is going to change the traffic pattern around the

Broadmoor/Football Complex before home, varsity football games. This change in traffic flow

will ONLY be for the HOME, VARSITY FOOTBALL GAMES. Currently, the scheduled home games

are on September 12th , October 3rd , October 10th and October 17th . If we host playoff games, we

would have the same traffic pattern. Please review the two maps. Before the game, from 5:30

pm to 7:30 pm, traffic will be two-way off of Metcalf and 8th Street. Signage and a police officer

will be at this location before the game. There will be cones allowing two-way traffic during

this time. Visitors may still enter off of 5th Street, between Broadmoor and the stadium. Before

and after the game, the west side of Broadmoor is northbound only. After the game, the traffic

pattern will be as it always is around this campus. Once again, this is only for home, varsity

football games.

We also would appreciate that no one park on the east side of the Broadmoor playground.

This area has been marked “No Parking.” Your help with keeping this area free of

parked vehicles is appreciated.

All school traffic and all other football and soccer games will have the normal traffic. We

appreciate you helping cheer on our Wildcats and we want everyone to be safe as they enter

and exit our stadium.

Louisburg USD 416 participates in a local Blessings in a Backpack program. The program is designed to provide non-perishable food every Friday to children that would benefit from supplemental nourishment over the weekend. This program is available to all district students/families. The program runs throughout the school year and there is no cost to participate. Distribution will begin the week following labor day in a discreet & caring manner. If you are interested in your child participating in Blessings in a Backpack, please complete this form for each child in your home.

Form to sign up for Blessings in a Backpack - https://forms.gle/MmX6WWN7YMRC3u3B8

Please take note of our school calendars when planning your family's vacations.

Attendance is a focus at BES and we want your children at school! It can be very difficult for students to get caught up sometimes when they miss for extended periods of time. For example, when a student misses a week of school, that is up to 450 minutes of math instruction they are missing!

If your family does have a trip planned, we do not provide lessons or materials ahead of those trips. Teachers will work with you to schedule times when your student can be given that instruction and guided work time to ensure mastery of skills. This may have to happen before or after school, but we will also try to work during the school day as well.

GREAT school habits now help prepare students for future success!
