Singing our BE BINKLEY! Song
Thank you Mrs. Garcia-Norris for our Be Binkley song. That we sang for the first time as a whole school at assembly.
Read Across BINKLEY!
We are excited to launch into March with our Read-a-thon. Our goal each year is to promote the reading with the challenge of how many minutes you can be read to, listen to audiobooks, or read yourself. Each student can register for free and log their minutes. Teachers and our wonderful librarian, Mrs. Johnston will also record reading during school. We are looking out for our top reader in TK-2nd and 3rd-6th. Our top readers will be awarded with being Principal for the Day. We also encourage classes to support each other, top classes will have a class reading party.
We also have a fundraising goal for our Read-A-Thon. Family and friends can donated to student accounts, and all the money goes back to Binkley. This year our goal is to raise $8,000 for things like field trips, assemblies, community events, student incentives and teacher stipends. If we meet our fundraising goals we will purchase benches for a seating area to the front of school where students can wait for transportation, as well as new equipment for our sensory room.
Stretch goals include new playground equipment like another gaga ball pit or playhouse. If every student raises $20 we will meet our fundraising goals for this fundraiser!
Please remember students of all ages and abilities are encouraged to participate by reading, being read to, or listening to audio books. And you will have plenty of time to read with family conferences on March 12th-15th with a 1:55 dismissal for all; and Spring Break March 18th-22nd.
For more information on how funds are distributed please see our Boosters website: http://www.binkleyboosters.com.
BE Safe. BE Responsible. BE Respectful.
BE YOUR BINKLEY BEST!
Warmly,
Harmony Harvell, Principal
