Both preschool and kindergarten registration for next year will be opening up on Monday! If your child will be 5 years old by September 1st, they are eligible to register for this fall. Our registration process will be online. The first documents we will need are screenshots or copies of a parent/guardian driver's license, a birth certificate for your child and 2 proofs of residency which can all be uploaded into the online system.

A note from Mrs. Cramer and the library: We have recently had many books brought back from students that are damaged, specifically water damaged! Some of them are brand new books that were recently purchased. Please remind your child to take of the books the check out from the library and store them separately from wet snow gear and water bottles, etc. Damaged books that need to be reordered will require payment from families before a student can check out another from the library.
This month your student will be earning another patch for their backpacks! The KINDNESS patch will be awarded when teachers notice students being kind to one another and provides a positive reminder of this important part of being a Bushnell Bear!
I hope everyone enjoys the weekend!
