Happy Friday Everyone!
We are excited to offer a way to give back to Bushnell Elementary School! On 9/25/2023 we will be kicking off an event to help raise funds that will benefit all of our students and staff. Our Next Level program, will help with funding Classroom supplies, great learning tools, awesome field trip experiences, and PBIS Celebrations.
It is going to be AWESOME; we are excited to get started!
A few things to note:
· This program will be extremely easy for you. It only requires about 10 minutes of your time.
· Your students can earn great rewards, just for their effort. No money required!
· This is an online, donation-based fundraiser, and the email and text message donation requests can go to people you know anywhere in the world. That means no direct pressure on your shoulders.
Students will be bringing home more information next week after our Launch Party presentation. Please help your student register and complete the Golden Ticket assignment that very night! All students who complete the Golden Ticket assignment will receive fun PRIZES and it does not require any money to register. We will also have awesome drawings for a $250 Amazon Gift Card and Mini-Party Fridges stuffed with CASH!
Our office is in need of second hand clothing for children who have accidents during the day. We especially need boys and girls pants, sizes 4T-8. If you have any you'd like to donate we would be more than happy to take them off your hands!
If you haven't done so already, please sign up for our notification system using One Call Now. Instructions are in the link below!
Did you know that our building is looking for parent volunteers? In order to volunteer at school there is a district clearance form as well as a volunteer code of conduct form to sign. We can always use extra hands for classroom projects, special activities, reading with students and other teacher requests. We could also use volunteers in our media center! Please stop in the office for the forms if you wish to take advantage of these opportunities. Keep in mind that it takes about a week to return the district clearance required in order to start helping out!
Our theme for the month of September is RESPECT. By the end of the month, each student at Bushnell will receive a 'brag stick' given to them by their teacher when they notice respectful behavior. Each teacher will be handling the brag sticks differently but most will place them on a looped wire connected to the backpack. Every month will feature a theme related to a character trait and a new opportunity to earn a new stick.
Have a great weekend everyone!
