Congratulations to Morgan Dukarski for reaching the Top Three in this year's middle school Battle of the Books! Morgan took second place in this year's final and earned $150 for our school library. Great job, Morgan! We are proud of you!
Mrs. Williamson, our amazing ASD teacher, and Mrs. Pretzer, our equally fantastic district nature coordinator, worked really hard on a grant to support a peer-to-peer group here at BCEL! They were awarded this grant which allowed them to purchase things to create raised gardens out in our courtyard. During recess yesterday our first peer group got together to enjoy some planting time in the sun! Peers had a great time planting, talking, giggling, and interacting with each other! Thanks for all of your hard work kids! We love these special times together!
Ms. Heider's young five students at BCEL have spend the last several week trying to hatch chicks. Well....yesterday their patience paid off when they began hatch!!! The excitement in that room is off the charts!! Welcome to the world little chicks!

Pine River Elementary students and staff enjoyed watching the solar eclipse. Thank you to the BCEL/PR PTO for providing the glasses to all students.
Some BCEL students enjoyed a special visit from a few staff members from the Center of the Arts today. These students were able to explore the steps of invention as they created, innovated, collaborated, and problem-solved through these amazing activities inspired by the stories of Andrea Beaty. Students explored the scientific process as they experimented like Ada Twist, engineered a flying machine like Rosie Revere, and worked as a team to construct a bridge just like Iggy Peck and his classmates!
What a fun and exciting way to make self to text connections and to connect with these experts from our community!
