Mrs. Walters News
We've had a wonderful week at Bushnell! We hope you all enjoyed the parties and festivities throughout the week.
We will be off the next two weeks and return back to school on Monday, January 8th!
Over the upcoming holiday vacation, there will be lots of time for being outside, sleeping in, and playing video games. We hope your family also makes time for READING.
Here are some reasons why:
- The more you read, the better you get at it.
- Reading leads to school success.
- Reading builds vocabulary.
- Reading builds confidence and independence.
Congratulations to Mrs. Silva! She won the PTO 'Nominate Your Teacher' challenge!
Finally, do you have a child who will be 5 years old by September first and ready for kindergarten next fall? Lowell kindergarten registration will open on February 5th this year. You can start gathering documentation and learn about our enrollment process here.
Have a great weekend everyone!
Erin Walters ~ Bushnell Principal
