Great Events at BHS

The week has been busy. It was so nice to see the families at our Open House and BBQ on Wednesday. We asked our Room 2 guests to write what their hopes were for their child this year. The comments warmed my heart. We will keep these rocks in a special place. The students toured their families around our classroom. A highlight for many was our WOW Wall. It is displaying work we are proud of. After the students selected what they wanted to put on the wall, we all looked at the display and said, "WOW!" If you were unable to attend last night, there is a handout that went home in your child's agenda so you will have the information that was shared.

Today we had our Terry Fox Run. We gathered in the gym and Mrs. Gale shared a story that her students had written and illustrated. This gave us a better idea about who Terry Fox was. We also watched a video about this amazing man's life. It is so wonderful that Terry's dream of raising money for cancer research continues to be supported by so many. Thank you for contributing to a great cause.
