Hello Families! Our school is hosting NED’s Mindset Mission, a growth-mindset performance for all K-5th graders. A world-class performer takes our students on an interactive educational journey filled with storytelling, illusions, yo-yo tricks and humor. NED’s message and memorable friends inspire students, promote academic achievement, and support our school goals. Never give up Encourage others Do your best® Our school received this program at no-cost because another school community has paid-it-forward to us. Now it’s our turn—you can help by purchasing a NED-messaged yo-yo and accessories. A yo-yo is both a mindset tool and tangible reminder of NED’s message. While learning to yo, children will make mistakes, try again, and improve. Read more at www.MindsetMission.com/yoyos. Check your child's backpack this week to find out more about when yo-yo's will be available to purchase! To see a sneak peek preview video, click link below: www.NEDfolder.com/mm-teacher-preview

18 BPA students attended the BPA State Contests this past week in Minneapolis. These students should be proud of themselves for their hard work and how they represented our school and our community. Well done!

At the beginning of the school year, the kindergarten class was asked to draw a picture of a monster. They color it and give it a name. They also give some likes and dislikes of their monsters. These drawings are then given to Mrs. Meissner, who in turn, has her 7th graders learn their sewing skills by recreating these drawings into little stuffed monsters. Some littles had forgotten the task from earlier in the year, but when they saw their drawings and the little stuffed replicas, there was nothing but smiles.

This spring junior high student’s artwork from Brandon-Evansville were selected to go into the exhibit Drawn From Nature at Alex Tech. At this show Joy L’s artwork “Cardnall” earned Judge’s choice! Congratulations Joy!!!

Congratulations to the February Student of the Month recipients for grades 2-5!

Congratulations to the February Middle School and High School Students of the Month! Middle School Jacob Wagner and Tatum Johnson High School Sawyer Chlian and Josephine Walberg What Staff have to say about the students of the month: - Jacob is a friendly and polite kid. He tries his best everyday and wants to please his teachers, classmates, and friends by working hard and being kind to everyone. - Jacob is a great kid all around. He volunteers daily to read out loud in my class, works well with other students, and makes his education a priority. - Tatum is cheerful, helpful, and one of my student leaders in the classroom. - Tatum is a tremendous worker and helps out in the class when needed. - Sawyer is a kind-hearted kid who is always looking to do his best. He takes his school work seriously and more importantly wants to do the right thing to help set a positive example for his classmates. - Josephine is a student who is always willing to lend a hand with anything that needs to be done. She cares more about learning the material than getting the grade, which is why she has improved so much this year. She is confident with herself and not afraid to put her ideas out there for everyone to hear.
