Hawks Happenings
May 2022
It's the last full month of school!
This year we will schedule a short transition time for rising 3rd and 4th grade students. They will take some time to explore the next grade level hallway and sit in some of the classrooms at the next grade level. This is part of our transition plan to help students feel more comfortable at the beginning of next school year.
Parents, as you think about next school year, please remember that requests for specific teachers cannot be honored. You are encouraged to share characteristics of your child and suggestions for the type of teacher you feel your child will learn best with by emailing Mrs. Allison. If you have a request for your child to be separated from another child, please be sure to tell your child's classroom teacher this year and email the separation request to Mrs. Allison. Mrs. Allison's email address is heidi.allison@bcsemail.org.
For our End of the Year Awards, we will be in the gym. Chairs will be set out for guests as they were in previous years.
Please note, that we are still not inviting guests to each lunch in our cafeteria with students. This is a county-wide decision.
Surveys~
Please complete your survey from BCS Communications by May 11.
Leader in Me MRA (Measurable Results Survey) will be shared with all parents soon. The window to complete this survey is from May 16th- June 7th 2022.
Both of these surveys help our school work to continuously improve. Please consider taking the time to complete these surveys.
