A Note from Principal Webb

Aloha, join us for a fun-filled Glam Hawaiian Dance tomorrow night!

  • Chick-fil-A staff lunch! Huge shout-out to Kristie Bergstrom for donating the lunch to our staff today. Kristie is a kindergarten parent and owner of the Larry Mulkey Memorial Road Chick-fil-A! Stop in for a sandwich!
  • Blast Off to Book Fair is NEXT WEEK! Teachers will let you know when your child will shop the Fair with their class. Visit the BFES Fair Website for details, to shop online or set up your child's ewallet. Gifting books to teachers is easier than ever! Instead of gift certificates, add funds directly to teacher eWallets to allow them to build their classroom library from the Fair as well as Scholastic’s entire online catalog! We can’t wait to see everyone and thank you for your support! The Book Fair will be open from 2:30 – 4:30 on the afternoon of May 18th. The Donut NV Food Truck will be at the front of the school with mini donuts, lemonade and hot cocoa.
  • Yearbooks! Yearbooks are $40.  You can order right HERE. The deadline to order yearbooks is Monday, March 31st. The yearbook is being created as we speak! Upload your BFES pictures now to make sure your bobcats have a chance to be featured! The password for ALL albums is Bobcats24! SEE BELOW IN PTO SECTION FOR LINKS! 
  • The Student Success Skills Inventory is used to measure student growth across Student Success Skill standards as taught by our homeroom teachers in our Rethink Ed lessons. It takes about 10 minutes to complete. The survey is taken by students electronically in their homerooms. If you don’t want your child to take it, which I can’t imagine why, please reply to this email and they won’t take it. No questions asked and all good from my end.

Donut Truck Spirit Night!

Join us during the Book Fair after school shopping day, Tuesday March 18th, for a donut truck coming to the school (out front) from 2:30-5:30p! 


Blast Off to Book Fair!

Blast Off to Book Fair starts Monday! Your child will have an opportunity to shop the Fair with his/her class. Teachers will let you know the date and time. We welcome parents to shop with their child during classroom shopping.

Additional ways to shop the Fair – 

  • Family Shopping after school until 4:30pm Tuesday, March 18. PTO will also have the Donut NV truck on site for a spirit night selling donuts and hot chocolate until 5:30pm!

  • Grandparents Lunches on Wednesday, 3/19 (5th/3rd/2nd) & Thursday, 3/20 (4th/K/1st). This is a special opportunity to welcome our grandparents into BFES by first having lunch with their grandchildren in the cafeteria and then shopping at the Book Fair. If you haven’t already reached out to grandparents, we hope that you will.

Accepted payment methods at the Fair – 

In lieu of teacher gift certificates, add funds directly to teacher eWallets to allow them to build their classroom library from the Fair as well as Scholastic’s entire online catalog!

Please note that per Scholastic, each purchase made at the Fair will include sales tax and all cash registers will automatically round up purchase totals to the nearest dollar. Funds from the register round up go towards classroom books. If you would like to opt out, have your child let the volunteer cashier know at checkout. 

We have open volunteer slots and would love your help - even if you can’t stay for the entire shift.  All volunteers who sign up for 2+ time slots will receive 10% off their Book Fair purchases.

We’re excited to see everyone next week – and thank you for your support!
