Brenham Elementary Cub News
End of Year 2018
A Note from Mrs. Vest
What a pleasure it has been to get to know each of your amazing students and our outstanding community this year. I have felt so welcomed and have been so proud to call Brenham Elementary my home away from home. Thank you for the ways you have encouraged and supported a new Principal in a new town, for the words of encouragement and smiles you have shared, for your understanding as we have implemented new procedures geared at efficiency, compliance, and student safety, and most off all for your precious children who make me smile and make every day, no matter how challenging or complicated, worthwhile. I look forward to getting to know each of you even better in the coming year, and I hope to see you in the community this summer! Please keep an eye out over the summer for continued newsletters and updates and don't forget to follow us on Facebook and Twitter @BrenhamElem!
Sincerely and in service,
Jennifer Vest

BES Summer Challenge
Kindergarten Roundup
The BES Kindergarten teachers invite your child to join us for Kindergarten Roundup. This will be an opportunity for a kindergarten teacher to meet with your child to assess beginning kindergarten skills before the first day of school. This brief meeting will take approximately 15 minutes. By completing some required assessments before school begins, we will gain time with students in the classroom to focus on instruction and classroom procedures.
Kindergarten Round Up will be held on August 1, 2018.
You may come and go anytime between 10:00 AM - 1:00 PM or 4:00 PM - 6:00 PM.
Community Fun for Families in Brenham!

Library News
We hope you were able to see our Summer Reading Contest and Bingo during our "Get the Summer Scoop" Night but just in case you missed it, details are attached at the bottom of this newsletter and you can check out this link:
There are also so many resources here for reading during the summer!
Thank you to all parents who supported their students joining the Birthday Book Club by purchasing a book for the library in their child's name in honor of their birthday. This will be an option next year as well, and we hope all will participate!

A Message from our BES PTO
Elmer's Glue Crew Recycling is a part of the Terra Cycle program and recycle glue bottles and glue sticks. They will give us .2 cents per used bottle or glue stick. If each student turned in just one, this could net our PTO $122!
Colorcycle Program is run by Crayola and will accept any brand of markers, highlighters and dry erase markers. They use the recycled markers to make fuel! A link to a short video your children might enjoy about this process is below.
