Broken Arrow Weekly Update
Looking Forward to the Week of December 5th-9th
Message from Mrs. Green
It was an exciting week with our first mixed grade level Eagle Nest session taking place on Wednesday! I hope your student(s) shared their excitement about their new Eagle Nest experience with you. If not, ask them how it went!
Over the next couple of weeks we will be continuing to keep our focus on high level learning while students also participate in FastBridge testing for our Winter Benchmark. Our 3rd-5th grade students will also be taking the KAP Interim Predictive assessment that helps to provide teachers with standard specific progress data for each student.
On a different note, our Lost and Found is overflowing! If you suspect that your student may have some items in the Lost and Found please encourage them to look through or feel free to check in with Michelle at the front office to get a visitor sticker and check it out for yourself!
Please see the notes below for more information about our upcoming December events and reminders.

Broken Arrow Garden Update
The school board voted to approve the garden expansion Monday evening during the school board meeting - a big thanks to them, the Farm to School team, and Facilities & Operations for getting our plans moving forward! When things warm up, we are looking forward to adding some additional beds for annual growing by the playground, just west of the library (to the left of the existing garden bed pictured below). Hip, hip, hooray!
