A Note from our Presidents
WELCOME BACK...again!!So exciting to have the students back in school full time! While some classes have experienced a small quarantine, for the most part, we are all back! This is very exciting for the PTO as well because we are ready to bring some fun back into the school!
The next few months will go fast as we start to thaw out from the recent negative temperatures so make sure to keep up with our social media, emails, and notes home for all the exciting events!
As always, we could not do what we do without your support, THANK YOU to every family who has donated any and everything to support our students, teachers, and staff during this different time.

Mid Year PTO Board Review
Please take a moment to check out our PTO Mid Year Letter. This gives you a look forward on this 2nd half of the year plans as well as a break down on our finances. With fundraisers looking different this year, we have been very fortunate in the donations from businesses and families to allow the PTO to continue their support of the school.

Membership Toolkit Online Directory
Attention all BCE Families (in person and OLA). The PTO is working heavily with teachers and staff to ensure ALL students and their parent/guardian's contact information is in the student directory. We know your personal information is VERY important and we do not take that lightly. Membership Toolkit is designed to allow you to share or hide whatever information you want.
As we bring back Room Parents this year, having all of our families in the directory is imperative to us planning events and fulfilling needs for our teachers and students. We do not want anyone to be left out of our communication. Please consider signing up today! Click on the logo to log in/register. |
