BGE December News

by David Wehde

December 03, 2009

The most important news to share is that Bowling Green Elementary School has met it’s goal toward AYP (adequate yearly progress) in Communication Arts. The initial report from the state was that we did not meet and this caused a lot of concern at BGE. After the state double checked, they realized that we did meet our goals and there was a large sigh of relief. We have put a lot of hard work and time into our Communication Arts instruction over the last two years and it is very gratifying that we are being successful. We are presently working on changing our math instruction and hope to see similar results with our AYP goals for math.

We would like to send out a BIG THANK YOU to the PTO and all the parents for supporting our fall fundraiser. It was a huge success. We know that the students enjoyed the prizes earned from selling items, but the most fun was had taking limo rides to McDonalds in a Hummer limousine and eating ice cream and taping Mr. Wehde to the wall. Mr. Wehde enjoyed being taped to the wall and hopes the students will have another successful fundraiser next year.

It looks as if we will be experiencing several rounds of winter weather this year. Please make sure your children know where they are to go should we have to dismiss school early. Getting this information to the school will also help ensure the children get to a destination where someone is waiting for them. In the event that we call school off prior to the school day beginning we will be notifying the community via the SchoolReach automated calling system. Please verify with the school office your phone numbers or update the numbers so the children will not be left standing at the bus stop when school has been called off. Our goal is to ensure safe delivery of all students to a warm home in a timely manner should the weather require the school to close.

CONGRATULATIONS to the boys and girls cross country teams and the football team on their outstanding seasons. Your hard work and dedication has brought much pride and excitement to the school. Thank you players, coaches, and parents for the countless hours spent in planning and practice and getting the students to the games and practices. GREAT JOB!!!
