Way to Go Bears!! Showing the BCE Way!- October 6th

Message from the office.

Hello BCE Community

Want to thank the 4th and 5th grade team this week for another great Town this week. It is so fantastic to see the students so engaged in activity that is so focused, and supporting so many lifeskills being taught.

We are excited to be able to celebrate birthdays again this year. If you would like to bring in a treat for your student's big day, you must check in with your teacher at least a week in advance. This will ensure all dietary concerns are addressed and the classroom has a plan for when treats can be passed out.

We have had several issue with toys being brought to school. Please note that we do not allow toys at school. If they are brought to school they need to remain in backpacks. If they are seen at recess or in class they will taken away. Parents can pick them up from teachers or the office. Thank you for understanding and helping check in with your student.

As a reminder we do not have school next Friday October 14th. It is a teacher professional development day.

As always, please let us know if you need anything. Have a great weekend

Mrs. Fippin and Office Staff

October BCE WAY Character Trait

The October BCE Way learning will be RESPECT. As a school, we will learn more about how to show respect, read texts, and practice. Please help at home by pointing out how your student is showing respect when others are going above and beyond, and, of course, we can all continue to learn and grow in this area.

COVID Updates- Please see new links - Update on Volunteers.

Please see the email provided by the Superintendent this week. Emergency procedures were detailed, and the District webpage has been updated.

I wanted to ensure you got the information from the district office regarding General COVID information. Please contact the health office if you have any questions or need any home COVID tests. We have plenty in the office. I also want to ensure all families receive the General COVID exposure notice. Please let us know if you have any questions.
