Some mischievous elves visited Bear Elementary School today. They were up to their tricks with Mrs. Ruppert. They might come to your school next!

Happy National Education Support Professionals Day! Education Support Professionals (ESPs) include individuals who provide essential clerical services, custodial and maintenance services, food services, health and student services, paraeducation, security services, skilled trades, technical services, and transportation services. Our ESPs are essential to providing our students with a good education – one that includes reliable transportation, safe and clean buildings, nutritious food, and a helpful administration. Thank you to every one of our devoted ESPs for your hard work!

Dear Bear Families,
Last year, Bear Student Council was brainstorming ways to raise
awareness of environmental issues and to give back to our Bear community.
Towards the end of last school year, they decided to lead a school-wide recycling initiative. The project allowed the students to collect recyclable plastic bags for six months with an end goal of collecting 500 pounds. In exchange for the 500 pounds of plastic, the organization that Student Council worked with will donate a bench to Bear Elementary made out of the recyclable bags collected. When you think of the weight of a plastic grocery bag, 500 pounds is a lot of bags and a very lofty goal but we are up for the challenge!
To date, Bear students have collected 404 pounds of plastic bags and we still have until October 12th to continue collecting. Thank you so, so much to all who have donated so far. We only need 96 more pounds to reach our goal so please consider continuing to support our recycling project. You may send your donations in with your child or bring them to the school!
Thank you for helping us. We are looking forward to adding our new bench to the Bear Green Machine Garden!
Thank you,
Bear Student Council
