Congratulations to Ms. Burke and Mr. Crawford, our May staff members of the month! To celebrate, each of you will receive a gift card to your favorite store and from local partner, The Butler’s Pantry. Your pictures are also posted in the office at each campus! Highlights from your nominations:
Ms. Burke (Teacher Mentor): “Mrs. Burke is a star at both BCE campuses. The care and energy that she puts into our students is phenomenal. Her responsibilities range from mentoring, teaching, supporting, assisting, developing, etc. Somehow she manages to complete each and every one of her duties. Mrs. Burke spends long nights and weekends working on various projects. She is genuinely dedicated to the success of our schools.”
Mr. Crawford (Head Custodian): “Mr. Crawford always has a big smile to greet people, he’s happy to help in any way he can, and he truly enjoys helping with school activities. He’s such a joy to be around!”
Final Reminder: Avoid the August supply shopping rush and order school supplies online. Deadline MAY 30!! The PTA is excited to partner with local organization Classroom Central to provide school supplies for our students and classrooms next year! An optional service for BCE families. Classroom Central will put together all required school supplies for each grade level and conveniently deliver them to your child’s classroom for the first day of school! ORDER ONLINE HERE by May 30th.
