New Recess Equipment

All Grade levels:

Make sure recess equipment is put back up after your time outside.

There are two basketballs, a football, a soccer ball, kickball,

a bag to put loose equipment and two ankle skippers

on each rack. Hopefully the ugly colors will keep them

at school : )

Two New Bees

Carmen Chandross and Lizzie Leinbach are new members in the Hive as

teaching assistant. You may know Carmen from after school BASE and

will be assigned to respond to school needs from 7:35 -11:35am daily.

Lizzie will take over for Andrea Mayfield in B-Base.

Dressing up for Halloween

After a brief survey today, BES long time staff are letting Jason know that

we haven’t officially let kids dress up for the day in awhile. Unless there

are major objections, we will keep it that way until we can have a good

conversation about it. If teachers can announce this to their students

and also keep in mind, if kids can’t dress up, we should not either. We

will also make sure it is on the announcements. Boo Humbug!

THANK YOU!
The Admin Team would like to thank our teaching staff for the energy
and motivation behind this year's PD time. It was a wonderful sight
observing everyone following their passion in our own, "genius hour".
We are glad that you are able to take the time to improve for the
benefit of our little bees.

A BROWNSVILLE STUDENT
Beginning Monday, the admin team will begin a series of learning
topics on the morning announcements about what it is to be a
BROWNSVILLE STUDENT. A LEARNER, SAFE, CARING will
be the traits we focus on. The objective is to give students, teachers, families
language to help students understand their role at school and in the
community. Take a look at the plan an let the admin team know if
you would like to participate in the evolution of this plan.
