Science Night
On Friday, January, 17th, Bidwell students went to Neal Dow Elementary for their Science night. Students assisted elementary students with several different science stations. The students did an outstanding job mentoring the young students through the night. Great job Bidwell Students.
Family STEAM Night
Bidwell Families,
Please join us for our annual Family STEAM Night celebrating Bidwell’s STEAM culture. Bring the whole family—especially the littles—as this is a hands-on, family-friendly event with yummy food. Students will receive Science extra credit points for attending with their family members. Last year, the gym was packed with happy kids engaged in cool STEAM learning games and activities. Please join us!
CHARACTER STRONG
All week, after school, immediately do your chores and/or school work first before anything else.
Of course, it is hard! It will all be worth it though. Think about how happy your family will be, and you will have fewer things that you need to worry about as well.
CJSF APPLICATIONS
CJSF APPLICATIONS are now available online or in the Counseling office. All previous members have to re-apply. If you are in 7th grade, you are now encouraged to apply if you had good grades last semester. Our club helps students with cash awards! Come see your counselor for more info.
8TH GRADE BABY PHOTOS Due Now - One last chance!
Photos Needed for the Yearbook
The yearbook is in desperate need of photos of Bidwell students playing Club sports (soccer, volleyball, lacrosse, baseball/softball, basketball, cheer). Please submit photos to Mrs. Jimmerson by Monday, February 3, 2020. Thank you!
New Science Curriculum Adoption
Any parents interested in previewing the new junior high school science curriculum adoption are invited to stop by room 101 at Chico Junior on February 25th at 6 pm. Teachers will be on hand to answer your questions.
Collaborative Colleague
Congratulations to Ms. Sanner for receiving the monthly “Collaborative Colleague” award and to Ms. Cain, recipient of the “Positive Pioneer” award! These teachers are recognized by their peers for being great teammates and spreading a positive vibe throughout Bidwell. These ladies will, in turn, recognize another colleague for their qualities at next month’s faculty meeting.
