Principal's Message
“A mind that is stretched by a new experience can never go back to its old dimensions.”
–Oliver Wendell Holmes
The school year is in full swing! During the month of September our teachers have worked hard to provide new and unique learning experiences for our students. Our third and fourth grade students are loving two new specials in their schedule: Health and STEAM. Our Health special provides students more in depth exposure to our PA Health and Physical Education standards. We are also thrilled to offer our students a STEAM course this year. Students have enjoyed building and expanding their knowledge of Science and Math in fun and exciting way!
Beyond new courses, I have witnessed, first hand, the power of quality instruction and engaging lessons in every classroom. Our teachers are proudly sharing evidence of their amazing lessons daily! Follow us on Twitter @BSES_Ealges and Facebook @BermudianSpringsElementarySchool to get a glimpse into our school day! We also welcome volunteers to support our students and teachers this year. Please contact Mrs. Laughman if you would like more information about necessary clearances to volunteer.
I hope to see every family join us for our Annual Fall Fest on October 9th and 10th. Our community partners are providing awesome experiences for our students throughout the day on October 9th. The weekend will conclude with an outdoor movie on Alumni Field on October 10th!
As always, I am a partner in your child's education. Please contact me directly if you have any questions or concerns.
