ODYSSEY OF THE MIND
The PTA is looking for 1-2 parent volunteers to chair/co-chair the Odyssey of the Mind committee for this school year. Please email Nicoleg23@gmail.com if you are interested.
BOOK FAIR
The BHES PTA Book Fair is happening from September 17th through the 23rd. This fair's theme is "A Whale-y Good Time to Read". We have contests and fun planned to celebrate! Due to Covid-19 considerations, we're running things a bit differently than in years past.
All in-person shopping will be done by students, during their classroom visits. Unfortunately, non-volunteer parents will not be able to physically shop at the fair, but still may do so online through this link: ONLINE SHOPPING
Want to help out with the fair? We're seeking (preferably, fully Covid-19 vaccinated) volunteer parents to help staff the fair for set-up, class visits, and pack-up. Volunteers must complete the child abuse and neglect training. Please see this sign-up genius link to help! SIGN UP
Another way to help is to purchase books for classroom libraries. Books chosen by our teachers will be available for purchase at the fair!
The easiest way to help is to purchase books, either online or during September 17 - 23! Scholastic rewards a generous percentage of our sales back to us as Scholastic Bucks, which are used to purchase books for our media center and classrooms. More than one of our recent in-person fairs provided over $5000 worth of books, each, to our school, purchased with our rewards!
E-Wallets are an easy way to send your child to the fair with money in an online account, where it can't be lost. Please visit our fair homepage above to set one up for your child before their class visits. Please note that funds added to an E-wallet that aren't used will be available for use at scholastic online and/or at a later BHES PTA Book Fair, but will not be refunded - this is a change from last year.
MORE ROOM PARENTS NEEDED
Many thanks to the dozens of volunteers who have signed up over the past week to serve as classroom volunteers! We're getting closer to having a full slate of room parents for the school but still need support. Please contact bhesvolunteers@gmail.com with any questions and available classrooms!
JUST IN CASE CLOTHING DRIVE
Accidents happen, and sometimes students soil or wet their clothes at school, and the school administration helps them change into something more comfortable. We are asking for gently used clothing donations of varying sizes to keep at school for these emergencies. There is a bin in front of BHES, and we thank you for your contributions! The most needed items are: unisex sweat pants, socks, and unisex shirts for grades K-2. Anything that the school administration does not use may be donated to Weller Road.
