🎉 Penny Wars Starts Today! 🎉
Get ready to bring in those coins and bills — the competition is on!
✨ New This Year: Half of the money raised by each grade level goes right back to their classrooms! That means your spare change directly supports your grade.
💦 Big Goal Alert: If we raise $4,000, TEN brave staff members will be water-ballooned by the entire school!
🍧 Bonus Prize: The grade level with the highest point total wins a Kona Ice party!
Start saving, start strategizing, and let the Penny Wars begin! 🪙💰

Our Kindergartener's "Hearts Around the World" project came to a close today, with much learning taking place about the 50 states and countries around the world! Letters and cards poured in from Austria, South Korea, Germany, England, China, Japan, and the students received cards from almost every state! Thank you Kindergarten teachers for this very worthwhile project and all of your very hard work!

Dear Poetry,
From the first line we read to the last stanza we labeled, we knew something was different about you.
You taught us that words are never just words—they spark, echo, dance, and sing.
We listened closely for sound devices that made poems pop, and uncovered figurative language that painted pictures in our minds.
We learned how poets choose each word on purpose, how lines build meaning, how stanzas shape ideas, and how poems can rhyme on a pattern-or break free in free verse.
Inspired by Kobe Bryant’s Dear Basketball, we found our own voices, pouring our thoughts onto the page with heart, rhythm, and intention.
Poetry helped us slow down, look closer, and say more with less.
And just like that—we fell in love with poetry. 💛✏️

Our roads have shown much improvement today in town and outside of town. But it will get below freezing tonight. Therefore, BISD will have a two-hour late start for Friday, January 30th. Buses will run two hours late. First bell at 9:45 AM. This gives all of you extra time to get yourselves and your students to school safely.
We are so glad to receive our students and staff back to school!! We have missed you. Be safe in the morning and give yourselves extra time!
