Happy Friday Everyone!
I'm happy to share that our district mental health team has launched a new resource for our school community. It is a web page containing lots of resources, contact information, and articles to support mental health of both students and their families. I encourage you to check it out when you have a moment! Mental Health Resources Page
Picture day is coming up next Thursday September 14th! Please note the information below regarding how to order pictures.
Did you know that our building is looking for parent volunteers? In order to volunteer at school there is a district clearance form as well as a volunteer code of conduct form to sign. We can always use extra hands for classroom projects, special activities, reading with students and other teacher requests. We could also use volunteers in our media center! Please stop in the office for the forms if you wish to take advantage of these opportunities. Keep in mind that it takes about a week to return the district clearance required in order to start helping out!
Our theme for the month of September is RESPECT. By the end of the month, each student at Bushnell will receive a 'brag stick' given to them by their teacher when they notice respectful behavior. Each teacher will be handling the brag sticks differently but most will place them on a looped wire connected to the backpack. Every month will feature a theme related to a character trait and a new opportunity to earn a new stick.
Have a great weekend everyone! And get ready for our first FULL week of school next week!
