Field Day
Field day is upon us! Our children have worked so hard all year long, and now is the time for a day of fun! Field Day is scheduled for Monday, June 6, 2022, the last full day of school. Volunteers are a vital part of making this day successful. Please, if you are able, sign up for at least an hour of your time. We need people to run the different activities and to help with the snack stations. Parents, grandparents, and trusted family friends are welcome to help.
*ONLY STUDENTS WITH EXCEPTIONAL BEHAVIOR WILL BE ABLE TO PARTICIPATE.
Lost & Found Items
BVE has a plethora of jackets/coats in our lost and found. Please have your children check to see if any of the lost and found items are theirs. Unclaimed items will be donated at the end of the year.

OPPORTUNITY FOR π½βπΌπΌ ππππβπβπΎ FOR STUDENTS IN GRADES 3-12
If you ever need help with your school work, thereβs someone available to help you 24/7 on Paper.
Available anytime, anywhere, no matter what youβre working on, youβll be able to connect with an expert tutor instantly. These are real people who are friendly, approachable, and want to help you succeed. To learn more about Paper and how you can get started, visit the MDE + Paper Website and check out the student resources.
To get started with a tutoring session all you have to do is log in, ask your question, and theyβll give you a helping hand. To login:
Type your schoolβs name
Log in via Google using your school credentials
Once you let a tutor know what youβre working on, you can expect them to ask you questions about what youβve tried, what you understand, what you donβt understand, and from there theyβll talk you through the steps. Paper is a place for you to improve, and that doesnβt happen when you just look up answers.
If you have any questions about your account, please ask your teacher.
Renewing Your Car Tag Soon?
WHY buy a G Car Tag? IT HELPS TEACHERS!
Teachers can apply for $500 grants from the $30 collected fee on each tag. This grant money is awarded to Gulfport School District teachers who complete an accepted grant application. Our teachers work so hard for your children. They often buy items for students and their classrooms out of their personal funds.
You can help :
Ask about a G Tag at the Harrison County Tax Collection Office or switch to the G tag when you renew your car tag.
Get your G Tag to show support for your community and help raise money for teacher grants, while personalizing your car all at once! #LoveGSDTeachers #MyGtag #AnchoredInExcellence #YouMeandGSD .
Designated drop-off and pick-up areas are on the front and back porches of school
DROP-OFF: begins at 7:00 a.m.
There is staff supervision in both areas beginning at 7:00 a.m. Student safety is our #1 priority, so please wait until you see a staff member outside before dropping off your child.
PICK-UP: begins at 2:30 p.m.
Changes to pick-up must be made prior to 12:00 noon, and students cannot be checked out after 2:00 p.m. Please remain in your car and follow in the car-rider line to pick up your child.
Safety FIRST!
