PATIENCE: Our Core Value for March
Last month our Core Value was Kindness, and this month it is PATIENCE!
We have shared with BES students that Patience means
waiting until later for what you want now.
There are many studies that correlate the ability to have patience or delay gratification and success in life. Learning to wait – and giving ideas for what to do while you wait – are skills that kids need to see and practice in a world of instant gratification. Here is a video you can view with your child about how patience can help them achieve their long-term goals:
BES Book Buddies
AVID High School Students
Blinn College
Brazos Valley Schools Credit Union
Brenham High School Cheerleaders

Brenham State School

Texas State Troopers
You are each a blessing to our school community!
Be on the lookout for more opportunities coming soon. If you are interested in being a BES Book Buddy in the future, please e-mail India Randermann at irandermann@brenhamk-12.net

Library News
We have been enjoying several new books in the library, celebrating Read Across America and Dr. Suess’ Birthday.
Parents: please remember to send Boxtops to the library. They help us purchase books and technology for the students to use in our library. They enjoy reading new books and working on our Chromebooks, and we love happy readers!
We also had a great time at our Bluebonnet Breakfast with our 3rd and 4th grade students that voted. We had an amazing breakfast and discussed our favorite Bluebonnet book.
So far this year we have delivered 24 Birthday Book Club books to students. This is fabulous! Thank you for honoring your child by supporting and growing our library for all students to enjoy with your donation. There is still an opportunity to join the Birthday Book Club by purchasing a book for the library in your child's name in honor of their birthday. The form is attached at the bottom of our newsletter and is available at school if needed.
