Fine Arts Day
Binkley Families,
And as we prepare for Fine Arts Day (FAD) on March 16th, CLICK HERE to sign up to help. No artist experience necessary! This is a special day that is done by noon. You will have all the instructions and materials provided to teach the same lesson twice. And we you are volunteering your time so coffee and treats to get you through the day. This is one of our favorite events, and this was cancelled for Binkley right when the pandemic hit. Please help us bring it back by signing up.
BE Safe. BE Responsible. BE Respectful. BE BINKLEY!
Warmly,
Harmony Harvell, Principal
Thank you for Heart-Gram Purchases
We had so much fun on Valentine's Day! Principal Harvell gave one (low sugar/low wheat) cookie to each student, if they chose. We welcomed a special assembly from the Pug Hotel that rescues and rehabilitates dogs. Students were also given the opportunity to pet the rescue pugs. Lastly, we gave out 266 Heart-Grams!! 172 of those with flowers 😃 Boosters fundraised $610! Thank you!
