Scholastic Book Fair
Our spring Scholastic book fair will take place during the week of May 1st through the 5th. As we'll be starting our big packing project to move to our new building, we'd like to keep the book fair as simple as possible. This book fair will be CASH FREE. All families will need to set up a Scholastic E-Wallet for student purchases.
The E-Wallet works much like a gift card; you set the amount with your credit or debit card on our Scholastic site, give your student their Scholastic E-Wallet print out, and then we do the rest. You can also share your student's E-Wallet with family and friends who might like to add more funds for your student to shop. Any leftover E-Wallet funds stay on your student's account for future book fairs or online Scholastic shopping.
We've been using E-Wallets for a few years now and they really are helpful. No need to worry about your student forgetting or losing book fair cash when it's already taken care of online!
Regular credit card and check purchases will be available on our after-school family night. More information about the fair will come home over the next few weeks. We'll be needing lots of volunteers!
Visit our book fair site here to learn more or to set up your account. https://www.scholastic.com/bf/beachelementaryschoolMD
Thank you!
NHS Cheer Egg My Yard Fundraiser
The Northern High School Cheerleading program is running an exciting fundraiser for families to enjoy.
EGG MY YARD allows people to pre-purchase a quantity of plastic eggs filled with "prizes" from us. We will then come on the evening of their choice to hide in their yard for a surprise Egg Hunt for kids of all ages right at their very own home. Families have the option to choose either Friday, 4/7 or Saturday 4/8 which is Easter Weekend. Please see the flyer below for information
BES PTO Announcements and Information
The Read-A-Thon fundraiser ends today, Thursday March 16th. Thank you to everyone that participated, shared, and most of all logged their reading minutes. We will pull the final report on Friday morning to determine which class logged the most minutes to earn the pizza party. We will announce the winning class and the total amount raised for the new playground on our Facebook page Friday and in next week’s wave.
PLEASE NOTE: All readers need to make sure to spend their prize money in the prize store. Any prize money not spent within 10 days after our Read-A-Thon ends will no longer be available. The prize store cannot be reopened once it is closed. All prizes will be shipped to the school.
Students can still be registered for tomorrow’s St. Patrick’s Day dance until 10pm tonight. This will be the last after-school dance of the year. Students registered will be able to purchase drinks and snacks for $1 each. When registering, please be sure to complete both forms-the registration and who will be picking up your child.
We will have our outdoor family dance again this year in May, the date will be announced soon.
