Dear BCE Families,

 

Happy Halloween! ~ I hope you had a chance to make it up to our Halloween parade.  The costumes were amazing, the kids were excited, and the skies were dry! It made for quite a wonderful morning.


Halloween Trick? ~ Well, we thought someone was playing a trick on us, but it turned out a water main was ruptured in town and BCE was out of water for a portion of our afternoon.  Our maintenance department brought jugs of water to campus and the kids 

were able to have something to drink with their Halloween treats!  The last update we received indicated that the water should be back up and running before evening.


No School – Just a reminder that there is no school for our students tomorrow, Friday October 30th.  It is a teacher workday and our staff will be being trained in new and exciting curriculum practices.


Family Science Night ~ Please join me next Thursday evening for Family Science Night.  Our wonderful Parent Club is sponsoring this fun and educational event.  San Jose Children's Discovery Museum will be at BCE with a variety of activities to explore and learn about air.  Join us at 6:30 next Thursday in the MP for "Air We Go!"

Family Conferences ~ Conferences will be held the week of November 16th through the 20th.  If you have not yet received sign-up information from your student's teacher, you should be receiving it soon.

October 16, 2015

 

Dear BCE Families,

 

Fire Prevention Week ~ We just finished up Fire Prevention Week here at BCE.  We want to extend our thanks to the Valley Fire Departments who help keep us safe.  Please ask your student what they learned this week and how it will help keep them safe in case of an emergency.

 

Halloween Costumes ~ It's October and I know many students are already planning their Halloween costumes. There are a few guidelines regarding costumes.  Costumes should be in good taste and safely constructed so that they do not interfere with regular class activities.  Gruesome costumes and bloody, fake wounds are not appropriate for an elementary school.  Weapons (including fakes), skateboards and roller blades are not allowed as part of costumes.   If you are unsure, please contact your child's teacher or the office before purchasing the costume

 

Lost & Found ~ Our lost and found pile continues to grow.  We have a large amount of sweaters, and jackets that have accumulated over the past 6 weeks.  As the weather begins to get cooler (I'm sure it will someday!) your students will need those extra layers.  Please come by and take a look. 


Don't forget to put your student's name inside on the inside collar of the garment.  This will help us return the item to your student should it be left on the playground.  Thank You!

 

College & Career Week  ~ October 26th – 30th

BCE will be participating with the rest of SLVUSD in recognizing College & Career Week. It is important that as an elementary school we begin to prepare students to attend college or other post-secondary educational programs.  Most of the jobs that our students will have as adults will require additional education past high school.  We want our BCE Bears to be prepared to succeed in any future they can dream of!

If your student is 10 minutes late for school every day, by the end of the school year they will be missing between 5 (grades 4 & 5) and 9 (kindergarten) days of important academic instruction.

Recognition Assembly ~ We had our first recognition assembly of the year on Wednesday. Thank you to our Parent Club for purchasing the BCE Way dog tags that each student will get this year when they are recognized for demonstrating the BCE Way.  Congratulations to all our students who were recognized for being Responsible, Safe and/or Respectful.  We have amazing students here at BCE and I know the teachers struggled at being able to honor only a handful at this assembly.  Luckily, we have five more assemblies to get them all up on stage!

 

Cabrillo Open House ~ Cabrillo College will be hosting an Open House on Saturday October 17th from 10am-2pm.  This is an opportunity for you and your student to explore one of our local college campuses.  It's never too early to expose our students to the idea of college and post secondary training.

Did you know???
