We hope everyone had a wonderful Fall Break! We were so happy to welcome our Bears back and hear about all the fun they had during their time off. We jumped right back into things with a busy week full of learning and fun! Our students enjoyed multiple field trips, participated in 4-H activities, and jumped back into their favorite after-school extracurriculars. There was lots of excitement around BES, and we loved seeing our students making memories, trying new things, and learning along the way!
We’re also excited to introduce a new section in our weekly newsletter called Bear Spotlight! Each week, we’ll recognize the people who make Battlefield Elementary such a special place. Be sure to scroll down to check out our first spotlight and get to know this amazing team!
