BH Rocks committee Random Acts of Kindness campaign
The BH Rocks Committee is launching a Random Acts of Kindness project for the month of March. We're asking our student and family community to perform random acts of kindness throughout the month of March, and then tell us about one (Who, What, When, Where, and How did it make you feel). A letter to families, along with the form to be completed were sent home with students. Forms are due back on Wednesday, April 3rd. |
Boulder Hill Student Council News
Job Shadow is back! Student Council in conjunction with the PTA will be running a Job Shadow opportunity for students during the Fun Fair AND during lunch times on March 5th. Typically students who job shadow are like a "kid teacher" in the visiting classroom. Teachers volunteer to participate in the job shadow and then students can purchase raffle tickets at $0.50 each for the chance of winning! Raffle tickets will be sold during lunch times in the lunchroom on March 5th. A small quantity will also be available to purchase the day of the Fun Fair, March 9th.
Student Council Spirit Day March 6 dress like your 126 for 126th day of school. |
Parent Focused Group
Parent Focus Groups will occur prior to PTA meetings. We will have our next Parent Focus Group on Tuesday, April 9th @ 6:00 PM. The main discussion question for this meeting will be "What currently exists for school safety and school climate? What more can we do to improve school safety and school climate?" We will address the issues that were shared at our February meeting, share what structures are in place, and hear from you in what ways we can improve. Please enter through the main entrance door #1 at the front of the building.
Light Refreshments will be served. Childcare will be provided for the Parent Focus Group meetings and PTA meetings. |
