We look forward to seeing our parents and guardians for conferences today!
Please adhere to the conference time that was share with you by your child's teacher. When you arrive you will sign in at the classroom. There may be a conference ahead of you, so please wait until the teacher has finished with the conference ahead of you. We are anxious to showcase our student-led conference with you. We are building leaders out of all of our students and excited for them to take ownership in their learning!
Also--we're looking for your input! There are 2 spots where parents can give feedback today. (At the end of the 2-3 hall and the end of the k-1 hall). This is one of our tasks for our school improvement plan, and a way we are looking to Learn, Lead, and Thrive to make BG a great place for all!

Being in school adds up! Missing just two days each month can put a student at risk of falling behind academically. Every day in the classroom is another opportunity to learn, grow, and connect.
Be here. Keep learning. Keep moving forward.

Look for a flier (or two!) coming home today (Tues. Sept. 8 ) in your child's backpack with some helpful guidance on determining when is sick too sick for school. Our Pre-K and Kindergarten friends will also bring home a flier about building the habit of good attendance from the start of their school careers.

Try this conversation starter tonight: “What’s the best part of your school day?”
Maybe it’s a favorite class, seeing friends, playing a sport or spending time with a teacher who makes a difference. Helping students recognize what they enjoy about school can strengthen their connection to being there.

September is Attendance Awareness Month. This month on our communication channels, we'll be sharing information on how vital attendance is to our Patriots' success. When students miss school, they miss valuable learning, relationships, and opportunities that help prepare them for the future.
Strong attendance habits start early. Students who are chronically absent in kindergarten are more likely to experience challenges with reading by third grade.
Building the habit of showing up today can make a difference for years to come.
