Hello BCE Community

Thank you to all the parent volunteers that supported the carnival. It was such a wonderful event, and we couldn't have done it without the amazing parent team that put it all together and all of those that came back to clean up. A great big Thank You to the Parent Club.

Thank you to all of our volunteers, and thank you for coming to our annual luncheon. It was so great to spend some time with each of your. We could not do what we do at BCE without all of you.

You should have received an email this week about registration for next year. All families need to complete this for ALL returning students have to complete this to get a class assignment for the fall. Please see directions below. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out to the office staff. We are more than happy to help you.

Summer learning books will be coming home again this summer. We have a few options for summer learning. We will have a big prize again if students are to complete the "learning Map". More information to come, but hoping each family can make time for some continued learning this summer. Even 15 minutes a day will make such a difference.

Have a wonderful weekend 8 Instructional Days of school left :) Count down is on

I can be reached best by email at gfippin@slvusd.org

We are so excited to celebrate our 5th graders moving on to the middle school on Wednesday June 5th. at 9am. We will be outside this year on the upper grass. Here are a few details for the event.

• Please plan ahead for parking. No parent parking will be allowed on campus. The campus will be closed for all on site parking. We will have a very limited number of Handicapped parking spots available. Once we have all filled, people will have to walk.
• We will NOT be providing chairs for the event. Please bring a low level chair or a blanket to sit on. Chairs will only be provided to staff on the day.
• Please plan on arriving a bit early, as the event will start promptly at 9:00 am.
• Students need to arrive on time and go straight to their classroom.
• Remember we are a no balloon school district. So if you could refrain from bring balloons that would be wonderful.
• Please refrain from bringing any noise makers.

• Please remind your young students not to join in during the ceremony.

• Fifth graders must check out with their teachers and the office if they leave early from school after the ceremony.

Note- if your 5th grader will not be attending SLVMS please contact Leanne Piccolo at 338-6413, so we know where to send your students file.

Parents, make your voices heard! Cradle to Career Santa Cruz County (C2C) is asking you to share your input by completing our Spring Survey. Your responses will help inform C2C's priorities, programs, and events at your school for the upcoming year. We will review the results over the summer and work with parents, community partners, and advisory members to develop our work plan for the 24-25 academic year. Participants who complete the survey by June 5th will be entered for the chance to win a raffle prize! The survey is available in English and Spanish and will take less than 10 minutes to complete. Thank you in advance for your participation!

As you know, attendance is extremely important. That said, we understand children get sick and may miss some school. We notice some students are missing an excessive amount of school due to illness.

If your student is out for more than three days we do require a doctor's note. You can scan & send the document to our health aide, Kat, at kgafford@slvusd.org. You can send a screenshot to (831) 252-1491 or you can bring the document to us in person.

This is extremely important so please save the paperwork from any of your appointments and submit that documentation in a timely fashion. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.

Should you have any questions please contact Kat at 338-6413 extension 149."

Our students work hard every day and are rewarded with Bear Paws. We have Bear Paw Store about every 4-6 weeks. If you are able, please consider helping to provide items from our Amazon wish list.

We are so excited to see everyone, and the first couple of weeks can be very busy in the parking lot. Please be patient with everyone while we learn and remember the parking lot rules. If you are dropping off or picking up, please remember not to leave your car if you are not parked in an assigned spot. There is no parent parking on campus, all parents need to park on the street and walk in. If you drop off at YMCA before 8, you may park in the bus zone for your quick drop-off. We do not have supervision for students before 8:10. Please do not leave your students before 8:10 unattended. Staff will be out and about to help and ensure everyone is safe.
