Our library will be hosting the Book Fair November 14th - 21st.

Consider using the eWallet feature for your student to shop – Instead of sending your student to school with cash that could get lost, you can prepay online in advance. Your student can shop the book fair, spending up to the amount you have chosen. More information about the Book Fair will be sent out soon.

You can set up your e-wallet and check out the flyer on the website now; online shopping will begin on November 14th.

If you are interested in volunteering for this event, please contact our PTA.

Remember to set your clocks back one hour on Sunday, November 5th. It is also a good time to check the batteries in your smoke detectors.

Each month, our ASB has a class competition dress-up day! The winning class gets to display the trophy in their classroom until the next dress-up day.

November's dress-up day will be on the 15th. Dress like a Viking or wear your Betz Spirit Gear!

Here are some pictures of our staff on October's "Costume Day". To see the dress up days for the entire year, download the PDF below.

Citizenship is positively contributing to society and community as well as dutifully respecting authority and the law.

Throughout the month of October we will look for examples of students demonstrating citizenship. If you have an example of your child being responsible at home, we'd love to share it on the morning announcements! Click on THIS LINK to submit a shout out!
