Sailor Families,

November is starting out with fantastic weather and a lot to celebrate. Thank you for your partnership in last week’s Parent-Teacher-Student Conferences. Our turnout was exceptional and the leadership shown by our students was top-notch. We should all be very proud! This is a huge step in our students owning their learning. Below are some updates you will find timely:

Fall Fest

I am very excited about this year’s Fall Fest on November 12th from 11-3pm! Much appreciation to Kelsey Warren and all involved in the planning for our only fundraiser of the year. You can’t have a fundraiser without the word FUN, so we are definitely looking forward to that. ALL of the money raised will go directly back to supporting our students and staff and Bay Harbor as a whole. Thank you for all of your support and donations already! The classroom baskets are going to be a huge success because of you. Silent auctions (a chance to be Principal for half a day), meat raffle, and more!!! PLEASE see the information below in the newsletter for links to volunteer and food donations.

End of the First Quarter

On Friday, November 4th marks the end of our 1st quarter of school. Like we know about football, it takes 4 quarters to win a game and in learning, it takes ALL 4 quarters to secure the skills necessary to progress to the next level. Each standard that will be reported on is written as a skill that should be secure by the end of the year and rarely by the end of the 1st quarter. A message will come out on the 11th at 6:00pm with directions how to access the report card.

Apparel

You asked and we listened! Watch for upcoming communication about NEW Bay Harbor apparel sales! There will be some pretty cool stuff and will be here in time for Christmas once ordered.

Have a wonderful rest of the week!

Tony Ebeling, Bay Harbor Principal
