READER BOARD DONATIONS REQUESTED!
Donations are requested for an electronic reader board! As part of our ongoing modernization this new, 21st century technology will be a wonderful addition to the front of school. One of our school goals is to improve parent and community communication. This new reader board would be instrumental in helping us inform our parents and community of the many events and positive activities our students and school are involved in. Our PTA is spearheading this project and we greatly appreciate your support!
If you would like to donate on-line, please go here to do so: http://www.gofundme.com/msrv9s , otherwise, please make donation checks out to Bidwell PTA with a reference to the reader board.
HEART AND SOLE RETURNS!
STUDENTS:
Please remember the following:
- If you go to a classroom during lunch, you MUST stay there. NO coming and going.
- Please walk quietly do NOT run.
- When in the classroom, follow the rules and DON’T leave a mess.
- The Games room, 105A, will only allow 20 students.
- If you go to a classroom and the door is locked, DO NOT wait at the door. Go back to the common area and do not return to that classroom for that day.
If these issues continue to be a problem, classrooms will no longer be open during lunch. Students, please hold each other accountable, together we make Bidwell Great!
