Dr Seuss Week

Read Across America Spirit Week is February 28th-March 4th! We invite all our Bobcats students to participate in this fun dress up week celebrating Dr. Seuss! Click here for all the dress up theme. 

Field Day

Save the Date! Field day is April 14. We are asking students to wear T-shirts in their grade level color. Students may wear a t-shirt from home, or you may purchase from a retailer. The shirt can have a design that is school appropriate. This is not a requirement and strictly voluntary. It not only looks awesome when students wear the same color, it makes it easy to identify students!

GRADE LEVEL COLORS:

Kindergarten: Yellow
1st Grade: Neon Green
2nd Grade: Red
3rd Grade: Orange
4th Grade: Blue

5th Grade: Black or the 5th Grade shirt

Parent volunteers are needed! Only CLEARED volunteers are allowed to help on Field Day, so if you haven't, make sure to start your application process and get background checked now. Note that we have a NEW volunteering system this year called VOLY. Click here to apply.

More information about Field Day to come.

Thank you,

Your Beverly Coaches
