Way to Go Bears!! Showing the BCE Way!- September 23rd
Message from the office.
Hello BCE Community
Well, it was another great week at BCE. I met with all grade-level teams this week to learn about our students. Wow, our teachers have been busy since the start of the year. One thing we all realized again was the importance of reading at home. All students must read at home every night for at least 20 minutes. It makes such a difference in each student's progress. Please contact your teacher if you and your family need books or have questions about your child's reading.
We will have our 1st student awards assembly next Friday. Each class will recognize 2-3 students who have gone above and beyond to help make friends and show others how to be good friends and be kind. We will also be recognizing students that have had perfect attendance.
As always, please let us know if you need anything. Have a great weekend
Mrs. Fippin and Office Staff

Volunteers
The BCE Parent Club would graciously appreciate volunteers for the various events throughout the school year. There are many flexible volunteer opportunities. Not only is this a great way to give back to the school, but also a fantastic way to make connections with teachers, staff, and parents. It's fun and very rewarding! We encourage you to sign-up and explore the many different ways you can help us. Join us at our monthly meetings to learn more about the BCE Parent Club.
