Be Volunteer Aware

Looking for a way to support our teachers and staff in and out of the classroom? Join the “BCE Volunteers Group” https://www.parentsquare.com/schools/12386/groups/529727/feeds on Parent Square. Regular volunteer needs will be posted in this group throughout the year. Remember, registering as a CMS Volunteer https://www.cmsvolunteers.com/ speeds up your check-in process at school events, and creates a safe environment for our students. Contact Katie Sontag kmsontag@gmail.com with questions.

Picture: This Garden Quilt was completed by Mrs. Gignoux, Cotswold students, MPPC and parent volunteers. Students helped to dye all of the cloth, added texture and designs to the cloth by stamping and arranged all of the pieces to create the sky, grass, flowers and the word imagine.

Hour of Code

Earlier this month, the Men of Billingsville-Cotswold organized our annual International Hour of Code 💻 and it was a big success. A special thank you goes out to Ms. Lewis, Ms. Pittman and Ms. Lock for working with MOBC and parent volunteers on this important project that creates globally minded learners.
