Fwd: BCE Bearmail 10/11/13

October 11, 2013

Dear BCE Families,

Another great success!  The Ice Cream Social was such a fun event.  It was a pleasure to spend the evening with the wonderful students and families of BCE.  Thank you to our Parent Club and all the volunteers for their hard work and generosity!

As the weather changes please take a moment to label your student's outerwear.  Every year we end up with hundreds of unclaimed jackets and sweatshirts that we donate to charity.  By putting their last name on the inside collar we are able to get the item back to your student.  Thank you!

Hot Lunch?  You can now prepay and check the balance of your student's lunch card online!  You can access the prepayment page on our BCE website by clicking on the Lunch Menu icon. 

Attendance  Facts = According to Ed. Code section 48260 a student is considered a truant if they are absent from school without a valid excuse more than three days, or tardy in excess of 30 minutes on each of more than three school days in one school year.

Thank you for supporting your student by getting them to school every day and on time!

Safety Tip of the Week: Please follow the directions of our staff members while they are on crosswalk duty.  They are there to protect our students and to direct traffic in a way that is efficient, but more importantly safe.

Wishing you all a wonderful weekend! 


BCE PARENTS CLUB EVENT & MEETING REMINDERS:
