Welcome back tomorrow.
Message from Principal Fippin
Hello BCE Community,
We are so excited to see everyone tomorrow. You should have received your class assignments from your teachers, yesterday. If you have not received an email please contact the office. It likely means you have not completed your online registration. Leanne Piccolo can support you.
See you tomorrow.

NEW PLAYGROUND EXPECTATIONS
Please read before 1st Day of School
On the first day of school, we will ask all students to stay off the play structure. We will also organize a rotation for all students to learn the new BCE WAY expectations for the playground. We know it is exciting, and we can't wait for everyone to have fun on the new playground, but we want to make sure everyone is safe.
We are also asking that you do not go on the play structure if you visit the school before the first day of school. The ground is like wet paint/ cement, and it must be redone if walked on. It will not be ready until the first day of school. So please help us by staying off.

PBIS-
Positive Behavior Support will continue to be a major focus for BCE this year. We will be looking at promoting positive behavior in all ways. We will focus on the BCE Bear Way for the first month. How do we show Be Safe, Respectful, and Responsible all over the campus. Please ask your student how they are showing these behaviors. We will also be giving Bear Paws for good behavior. These will be used like cash at the student store in the coming weeks. More information is to come regarding the store, but it will be very exciting.
Don't Forget the Rules for Drop off and Pick up
Drop Off and Pick Up
We have had several issues the past couple of weeks at both drop off and pick up. Please know that all of us out at the cross walk are only trying to keep our students and families safe. I wanted to remind everyone to please first be Kind and Patient. Here are a few reminders about pick up and drop off
- You can drop off on either side of Laurel Street.
- You can NOT drop off coming up on Lomond street.
- You can only leave your car in designated parking spots on Laurel street.
- Make sure you are not parking in front of our neighbors drive ways
- On Lomond Street, you need to park in the right direction. Buses are not able to get through when cars are away from the side and parked in the wrong direction.
- When walking down Lomond Street please use the sidewalk. We have had a few close calls with kids and parents walking in the center of the street.
Thank you everyone for helping ensure safety of all of our students. Below is the parking map again for reference.
Hot Lunch and Bus Passes
We will continue to provide free lunch to all students this year. We do ask that you complete the application on the district webpage. It is very important that ALL families complete this form, as it helps us with funding in several different areas.
If your child will be riding the bus this year and will need a bus pass, please make sure you purchase your bus pass online here. Once you log in to LinqConnect you will see "School Store" on the bottom right hand corn. Click that to buy your pass. Any questions contact the transportation department at 831-336-2223
Please also complete the following form for all students riding the bus.
