Tomorrow begins BCPS Goes Gold for Childhood Cancer Awareness Week! The theme for the day is putting cancer to bed. It's a pajama day!
Don't forget to bring in donations of snack items for the hospital.

The Bulldog Bark looks different today because next week has so much packed into it. The link below will take you to a daily breakdown so you can easily check out each item and not miss anything important.

Flyers are coming home today to families who have not completed the CEP (free meals) form. Having every family complete this form each year is a big part of how we qualify as a school for free breakfast and lunch for every student. Please help us to keep this program by completing your form as soon as possible. Thank you!

These giant metal cases and all those boxes mean that the wait is almost over! The book fair is coming next week!


Congratulations!

Students in fourth grade read a biography this week about Vietnam vet and Native American sculptor, Michael Naranjo. Wounded in war, Michael lost his sight and partial use of one hand. Despite these challenges, he continued to pursue his dream of being a sculptor, with his artwork now displayed in the US, Europe and the White House! Students reviewed using explicit and implicit details to better understand a text, discussed how Michael demonstrated several of our Graduate Profile competencies and students were engaged in an authentic learning experience when they tried sculpting blind. Needless to say, they had a lot of fun!

Look at those smiles! These students are rocking first and second grade and being responsible inside and outside of class. Nellie is focused on learning at all times no matter the distraction. Jaxon, Zeanna, and Jillian took it upon themselves to clean up trash and debris on the playground during their recess time so the playground can stay nice for everyone who uses it. We are so proud of all of you!



Mark your calendars! DISTRICT-WIDE DRESS DAYS
Don't forget to send in non perishable, individually wrapped snacks!


We are so proud of Cayden! He has shown great growth and has been helpful to remind our younger students of expectations for safety and respect in their building this week. He is definitely deserving of this positive office referral. Way to go, Cayden!


Gina Weber, District Instructional Coach for Graduate Profile, met with our fourth graders this week to introduce 2 of the Graduate Profile competencies. Students learned how to be Effective Communicators and Productive Collaborators in their learning this year. #bcpsmovingforward







Check out that smile! Alayna is a role model to her classmates and is always trying to make the right choices as a friend. Great job, Alayna!


See the message and link below for info from our FRC.
Hey Adults! Help us support students at the Family Resource Center by keeping an extra set of clothing in your child's backpack. This ensures they have what they need for unforeseen accidents without causing an inconvenience for you. A top, bottoms, underwear, and socks in a gallon-sized ziplock bag makes all the difference. Let's keep our kids prepared and confident!
I appreciate your help!
Thank you!
