It's still snowing!
What a week! I hope you are all dug out and enjoying the snow. Send us your snowman pictures and we'll share them next week.
This snowy weather must be conducive to reading! Our Bears are doing wonderful! - As of this morning, our bears have read 83,197 minutes and raised over $4000! Ms. McNulty's class has taken the lead for both minutes read and fundraising, but is closely followed by Mrs. Bohen's class for reading and Mrs. Rose's PM class for fundraising! 477 minutes and $103 separate them!!
Thank you to Rachel Bohach and Jennifer Chen for joining our Yearbook Planning meeting this past Tuesday. And thank you to Marisol Landin for reaching out to help. We still need help. Please consider joining our next meeting. Stay tuned for details.
Our next PTO meeting is Tuesday, February 9th, 7:00 pm. Please join us.

WhooosReading
The children love logging their minutes and changing their owl avatars. They are certainly off to a great start!
Remember the maximum minutes that can be logged for a specific day are 120.
The student who logs the most minutes and the student who raises the most money will both receive $50 worth of items through Scholastic.
*If there are several students who qualify, we will have a drawing to pick the winner.
We are still working out the incentives for the classes. Homework passes, lunch with the teacher, and maybe a virtual visit from an alpaca are all possibilities. If you or your child have any suggestions, feel free to let me know.
Our Read-A-Thon is running through February 28th.
Any questions, please contact Briana George @ bgsptopresident@gmail.com
Bradley Gardens Masks are Here!
The teen size is great for our school-aged children.
PTO Positions - Web Master
We Need A Nominating Committee
If you have a talent for seeing the potential in people and matching them to a need, then WE NEED YOU!
Are you in the field of marketing or advertising? Maybe you can help with advertising the positions?
Many hands, make light work. If you can spare a few hours, we could use your help.
WE NEED YOU!
Specifically, we will need 2 PTO Presidents, 1 PTO Vice President, 2 PTO Treasurers, 1 Recording Secretary, and 1 Webmaster.
If you are interested in any of the positions, please email Briana George @ bgsptopresident@gmail.com.
The more help we have the easier it is to run the PTO events and manage the administration of the PTO. Hopefully next year we are back to "normal", but either way, the events we have come to love and the support that we have given the school in terms of assemblies, equipment and programs need to continue. Please consider joining our team.
Many people have asked where to find a description of the roles. You can find our complete by-laws on the PTO website under forms and documents. I am also including the section that specifically address the roles below.
We are happy to answer any and all questions.
Play Ball
SPRING REGISTRATION FOR BRADLEY GARDENS BASEBALL & TBALL IS OPEN!

Celebrating its 63rd year, the Bradley Gardens Little Loop baseball program emphasizes teamwork and sportsmanship, and provides quality baseball instruction to every child who participates in the league regardless of skill level.
The Little Loop season runs from April to June, and is open to all boys and girls between the ages of 4 ½ and 12, regardless of where they live and regardless of their experience level. Players are placed into one of four divisions based on their age as of May 1, 2021.
From beginners to more advanced players, all are welcome to play. Unlike other leagues, the Little Loop does not require parents to post work bonds before their children can participate in the league. We are an all volunteer program and a non-profit organization. Our focus is on providing your child with the best baseball experience possible at an affordable price.
Sponsors, Managers, and Coaches are always wanted. Questions about the league? Send us an e-mail at bgllbaseball@gmail.com
