🐻❄️ Mrs. Hedlund’s Kindergarten students at BCEL have been busy learning all about hibernation! After reading The Bear’s Winter House, they created their very own cozy bear dens. 🏡✨
Check out these adorable pictures of our young learners showing creativity and understanding as they built special winter homes for their sleepy bears! Great job, Kindergarten! 💛

🎾 A huge THANK YOU to the coaches from the Greater Midland Tennis Center for coming out to BCEL today and introducing our students to the fun and excitement of tennis! Our kids had an absolute blast learning new skills and getting a taste of this awesome sport.
And an extra big shoutout to Ms. Evans, our amazing PE teacher, for organizing such a fantastic opportunity! 🙌 What a fun way to learn about a new sport and stay active!

🎃👻 Our sweet little ESA preschool trick-or-treaters made our morning extra special today! Mrs. Rey’s adorable goblins came through the school collecting treats and spreading smiles. 🧡
We loved seeing them use their communication devices — or proudly saying “Trick or Treat!” — as they visited classrooms and offices in their cute costumes.
Thank you, Mrs. Rey, for sharing your Halloween fun with us! We just love our ESA preschool friends! 🕸️🧡

🎨✨ Our kindergarten artists have been busy imagining, creating, and bringing sticks to life!
In art class, BCEL Kindergarten students explored how to use their imagination to see a stick as not just a stick — transforming it into something brand new through their creativity! They practiced using glue carefully, added their stick to their drawing, used multiple colors, and worked hard to color neatly and with purpose to turn their drawings into true works of art.
A big shoutout to our amazing art teacher, Mr. V, for inspiring our young creators and helping them see the world in new and colorful ways! 🖌️

🌿 What an exciting day yesterday at BCEL! 🌿
Big equipment, hard-working crews, and lots of curious little eyes made for a big day of progress on our beautiful new landscaping — both out front and in our courtyard! The kids had an absolute blast watching all the machinery in action and seeing our space transform before their eyes. 🚜💚
We’re already loving the fresh new look and can’t wait to enjoy our courtyard once the grass grows in. A huge thank you to everyone who helped make this happen — what a true blessing for our school community! 🌼✨

💫 Big shoutout to two amazing boys from Ms. Murray’s class! 💫
They’ve been working so hard to grow as readers—and the best part is what great buddies they are along the way. 🤝 They cheer each other on and celebrate every win together.
Today, they both did an incredible job sharing their passages and even came to my office to read to me. Listening to them was the absolute highlight of my day! 📚💙
Way to go, readers!! Keep up the hard work—we are so proud of you! 👏👏
