Check out this fun and educational experience for the first graders at BES! Candling the eggs is a great hands-on way for the students to learn about the development of chicks. Students were so excited to see the little movements inside the eggs while candling them with a special light. Can you imagine the excitement when the baby chicks finally hatch? It’s a perfect way to bring science to life! More EGGciting news coming next week when our chicks will be hatching!

Our next sharer of Greatness is Broderick from BES!! This is his fourth year wrestling and his record for this season is 34-7 with 18 pins, 2 tech falls, and 6 majors. He has also competed in 12 tournaments and received 7 first place finishes, 3 second place finishes, 1 third place finish, and 1 fourth place finish. This past weekend, he competed at the District 3 Regional in Burlington and placed 3rd which punched his card to go to the State Championship Tournament.

Broderick has grown in the sport in so many ways these past four years. He has learned what discipline, hard work, and dedication will get him. His sportsmanship while managing his emotions has gone through the roof! From making better and healthier choices when it comes to food to supporting his teammates and continuing to learn more wrestling techniques and skills. He will continue to strive in the sport he loves with the mental toughness he possesses. Good luck at state, Broderick!!

Our next sharer of greatness is Kaidyn from BMS as his ice hockey team recently won the Tier 1 Squirt Hockey Season Championship and he was awarded hockey player of the season along with his good friend leading the team with the most goals scored during their regular season.
It has been shared with us that Kaidyn is an amazing hockey player and shows true positive sportsmanship all around when it comes to hockey. He’s always keeping the energy positive and keeps the crowds going by doing his little dance moves on the ice. He also is quick to give the opposing team’s goalie and players a pat on the back during the end of the periods.
Way to go to Kaidyn!!!! We are SO #MustangProud of you!!!
