PEACE: Our Core Value for April
Last month our Core Value was Patience, and this month it is PEACE!
We have shared with BES students that Peace means
proving you care more about each other than winning an argument.
The PEACE coloring page is attached at the end of this newsletter as always and below is a video link you can watch as a family about choosing PEACE with a sibling or family member.
Library News
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.
