B.F. Day Dayette
September 19th, 2025
Greetings B.F. Day Families,
It's been another active week at B.F. Day. This morning we hosted Senator Pedersen and Superintendent Shuldiner. Both leaders are familiar with B.F. Day. We were able to highlight the BEX Levy funded window replacement project that is happening this summer. It was interesting for me to listen as they discussed broader patterns of needs and strengths across the district's facilities in relationship to levy funded projects. There's good work happening in SPS!
As part of our visit we joined Ms. Tetrick's and Ms. Riepe's classes. The senator engaged students in conversations on the topics what senators do, and how the number of senators for a region are determined. Students asked great questions. The fourth graders, in a lovely impromptu moment, sang a part of their song from the showcase for our guests. We do grow beautiful things under the evergreens.
Our guests were so excited to hear about our amazing Spring Music Showcase at Lincoln High School. I was able to highlight for them the partnership with Creative Advantage and PTSA to bring professional artists and writers into our school to lead students in the creative process. It was short visit, and very positive one.
The Spring Music Showcase was a show stopper! A big thank you to Ms. Bethany for organizing this event and collaboration with Lincoln High School for us to be able to use their beautiful space. We had a full house! So many people helped make this event possible and I'd like to share my abundant gratitude for the opportunity to bring our community together in celebration of the arts and the creations our children shared with us!
