Our BES Kindness Squad has been hard at work these past few weeks spreading kindness!

First, our students jumped in to help Mr. Erickson tidy up the school grounds, raking up endless leaves after school, making our school look great.

Next, they poured their hearts into creating and decorating Thanksgiving cards filled with encouraging messages for the meal boxes going out through Loaves and Fishes.

To wrap up the month of November, these amazing students even gave up part of their Saturday to spread cheer at Geneva Manor! They crafted seasonal projects with and for the residents, made decorations to brighten the activity room, and created door décor to bring smiles all season long.

Way to go, Kindness Squad! You are truly making a difference in our community!

The Genoa City Joint 2 School District presents Miss Flood’s Annual Kindergarten Thanksgiving Cookbook—a collection of carefully crafted, highly imaginative, and occasionally scientifically questionable recipes straight from the minds of our youngest chefs.

Please note: The District cannot be held responsible for any culinary outcomes resulting from these recipes.

Happy Thanksgiving: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1CnGJ6ZJ4GpV-kEOzPgsBm0g85tz3oWCU/view?usp=sharing

As a service project, Mrs. Collins’ advisory collected pop tabs to support the Ronald McDonald House Charities. Ronald McDonald Houses provide a comforting, home-like place for families with children receiving medical care at nearby hospitals. By saving pop tabs, our students helped raise funds through recycling that directly support these programs and keep the Houses running for families in need.

Thank you to all students and families who donated—and a special thank you to the Sponenburg family for contributing to and delivering our collection to RMHC of Eastern Wisconsin!

2nd and 3rd-grade BES students had a blast diving into all things Disney in the "Magical World of Disney" Adventure Club! Students designed their very own MagicBands and Mickey ears, learned about Walt Disney himself, and explored the history and evolution of Mickey Mouse.

They discovered the incredible world of Disney Imagineers and why their creativity makes the parks so magical! Students even became Hidden Mickey experts—learning the history behind them and taking part in an exciting school-wide Hidden Mickey hunt.

Using real theme park maps, students explored each of the four main Disney Parks and then virtually visited each park to experience the magic firsthand.

It was an unforgettable adventure filled with creativity, curiosity, and plenty of Disney magic!

4K families had a wonderful time at their Camp Out to Reading event! Families gathered together for an evening filled with cozy stories, warm s’mores, and joyful campfire songs. Students snuggled up with their loved ones to listen to favorite books and explore new ones, creating a love of reading in a fun and inviting setting. Everyone enjoyed s'mores, singing classic camp songs, and spending quality time together as a school community. Thank you to all the families who joined us and helped make the night so special!

On Monday night, several 3rd grade students presented at the board meeting about their first reading and writing unit of the year that focused on fictional narratives. As part of this work, students completed a Magic Tree House study in which they compared and contrasted two books and analyzed the recurring plot structures within the series. The unit concluded in a creative writing project where students authored their own Magic Tree House-inspired stories. Throughout the process, they engaged in each stage of the writing process—brainstorming, drafting, editing, revising, and ultimately publishing their final pieces. Way to make us #MustangProud 3rd graders!
