☕️ Café Day in ELA! 📚
Our 6th-grade ELA students in Mrs. Brockway's class got to celebrate all their hard work with a fun Café Day! Students chose their favorite drinks and treats from their classroom menu, enjoyed some time together, and put their Greek mythology knowledge to the test with a few fun games.
Way to work hard, Mustangs!

Thanks from Mr. Ringsby! Some BES students come early in the morning to help us get ready for the day. 1 of our 5K students helped Mr. Erickson put up our new flag; the previous one had gotten a little worn. Later this student's younger sister was 1 of the students who got to say the Pledge of Allegiance during morning announcements!

Students had the day off today, but our staff was hard at work learning together! 📚
We dug deeper into how to use classroom evidence and student work to understand what students need, give useful feedback, and adjust instruction. We also explored positive psychology and practical ways to support well-being and connection at school.
Members of our own staff members led an important conversation about the danger of labels and how we can better see and support each student as an individual.
Days like today give our team time to reflect, share ideas, and bring new strategies back to our classrooms. We’re looking forward to seeing our students again tomorrow! 💙
Last week, our 4K had a wonderful day at the farm!
4K had such a fun-filled day enjoying all the sights, sounds, and activities of the farm! They had a great time taking a tractor ride around the farm and picking out pumpkins and gourds, enjoying a delicious apple cider donut, and soaking up all the beautiful fall weather.
The fun continued with time on the playground, climbing and playing on the hay bales. There were plenty of smiles, laughter, and special moments shared throughout the day.
We are so thankful for days like today that give us the opportunity to get out, explore, make memories, and enjoy the simple joys of the season together!
Thank you, Pearce's Farm Stand, for a fun-filled day!
