Big THANK YOU to all of our family members who volunteered their time and donated prizes for the Harvest Hoedown! Our students had a great time celebrating their hard work through the first quarter of the school year. We appreciate all of the help and support from our families! Also a big thanks to our BHS students who volunteered to help with booths, face painting and anything else we asked them to do! It's so much fun to see our high school students interacting with and being positive role models for our younger students!
Weather reminder: The weather has been SO nice lately but it's supposed to get much colder starting tomorrow. The forecast says Friday will start out pretty warm and get significantly colder throughout the day, then much colder into the weekend and next week. Please make sure to help your student(s) make responsible choices for weather-appropriate clothing.
Tomorrow is the Harvest Hoedown! This is an opportunity to celebrate the hard work our students have done through the first quarter of the school year. Here are a couple of reminders:
* Students should NOT wear costumes to school. Each class is scheduled for about an hour of the school day for our celebration and the rest of the day will be learning time. They'll have an opportunity to change into costumes before their scheduled time. Please save the face paint for another time since it tends to distract our students from learning.
* Bloody/gory/violent costumes and fake weapons are NOT allowed so those costumes will need to be saved for a time outside of school. Students who bring bloody/violent/gory costumes will not be allowed to wear them for the Harvest Hoedown.
* Students do not need to wear a costume and they will be able to participate in the activities whether they dress up or not. This is a celebration of hard work so we want all students to be included.
Big thanks to all of our families who donated prizes for the booths and to our volunteers. Please make sure to check in at the office at least 10 minutes prior to your scheduled time and we'll let you know your assigned station. Thanks for helping us make this a fun celebration for all of our students!
We need your help! We are trying to use this as our annual fundraiser, rather than having items you have to sell or collect anything. You will receive a receipt as confirmation that can also be used for a tax deduction.
