This Week...
Hi All,
Great week here at BWE. SO busy! I felt like I was running from room to room to try to catch a glimpse of all the amazing learning happening!
Ask your kiddos! Our building was electric with energy today! From design challenges to special guests, from measuring challenges to 100 days of school activities. Your kids had a blast and learned a lot!
Catch Mr. Brodhead and Miss George at the Wizards vs. All-Stars game on March 2nd at 6:30! Check out the calendar for other fun events!
Have a wonderful weekend!

BWLS Teacher Assessment Survey
As a district, we believe that the purpose of testing is to drive our instruction. Unfortunately, the amount of testing being mandated by the State of Ohio has increased. This has caused us to want to do an assessment inventory. In this process we will examine all district-level given tests and make decisions about which tests are high quality and necessary for our students to take and which tests can be modified or eliminated. A committee of teachers and administrators will complete the assessment inventory over the next several months and make decisions about which tests to give as a district moving forward.
This survey is an important part of our assessment inventory. Your responses will help shape recommendations for the future of the district’s testing program. Please know that your responses to this survey are confidential. Thank you for taking the time to give your input!
