The House System •We are continuing the House program at BCE to promote community and citizenship. •Your child has been selected into a house. The houses are Odwaga (courage), Amizade (friendship), Osotasuna (integrity), and Viska (wisdom). These houses are made up of students and faculty/staff school wide. •Each team works as a family to earn points to win the House Cup! Points are rewarded based on students exhibiting good citizenship based on our Essential 10 rules. •At the end of each 9 weeks the house with the most points will win the House Cup and a special reward day! •The students will also meet with their house families to work on special projects throughout the year.
Word Club
•We will be working all year on fluency with sight words. A great way to practice this is through the Word Club. •Your child will bring home a list to practice. Once you feel that he/she is ready to test, send me a note and I will quiz him or her. After your child shows mastery, I will send home another list for your child to practice. I look forward to seeing their growth!
Student of the Week •Each student will have a week this year to share everything that makes him/her special! Your child will have the opportunity to create a poster and bring in photos to share.
