Meet Our School Counselor, Mrs. Upton
Our school counselor, Mrs. Upton is no stranger to Bennett Elementary- She once was a tiger, too! Ms. Upton brought the wonderful Start With Hello Program into our schools and we are so thankful for her. Our students and staff thrive under her SEL leadership and the warm environment she helps to create!

CELEBRATING KIDS WITH OUR UPCOMING EVENTS
CALLING ALL COOL CATS AND KITTENS!
Is your kiddo super cool and rad?! We want to know! I will be dedicating a section of our newsletters to spotlight the amazing students in our school. All I need from you is to send along a 1-3 photos and a blurb telling us about your student and the cool sport, award, or neat things they've been able to do and we will add them to our newsletters. We know we are amongst really cool students and want everyone else to know too! Email btravis@bsd29j.com ***Please note that our newsletters are posted on our district website and can be accessed by the general public***
They Say It's Their Birthday!!
Attached, you will find a flyer for families to participate in celebrating their child(ren)'s birthdays at school! Beginning this year, we are offering families the option to purchase a "Birthday Bag" filled with little birthday goodies for $5. We will attach a message and deliver it to the classroom on the special day of your choosing, which will be great for long distance family members still wanting to be involved!
October Count and School Spirit Day
Each year, public schools participate in October Count Day to receive funding for our schools. This funding helps pay district salaries, purchase school resources and classroom materials and one of the big determining factors is student attendance/enrollment in our school. To celebrate our school and help with attendance, we will be hosting a "Dress in your pajamas day" and students may bring a small item that fits within their backpacks (and isn't or has not been alive) for class Show and Tell in the morning after attendance.

Change in Dismissal Transportation
Please let the office (not your child's teacher) know by 3pm each day if you are going to change how your child gets home. If you email your child's teacher or call after 3pm, we cannot guarantee that messages will get to the student in time.
