Beckley Business

Hey there Beckley families! I hope everyone had a relaxing winter break and are ready to have an amazing rest of the school year! We have a bunch of fun activities coming up in the near future, including NV Reading Week, Career Day, and Pastries with Parents. As you all know we have been working on our WIDA assessments. Please make sure your student are attending school on testing days and that they are arriving on time.

Our Days of Giving was a success. We were able to donated boxes of supplies to homeless shelters because of all the generous donations that were collected! We are planning to have another collection at the end of the school year. More information will be coming home with your child, later in the year.

Our annual Career Day will take place on Friday, February 7th. Students will have the opportunity to explore different careers, listen to professionals in the field explain their careers, and have an opportunity to ask questions. Be sure to talk to your child about what they have learned about the different career options!

Field Day dates are :

April 30: Field Day (K-2)

May 1: Field Day (3-5)

For Field Day, please send your child to school in sneakers. You may also want to send them with sun block on, a hat to wear during filed day, and with a water bottle.

This is a friendly reminder that a Boys Town Representative will be at Beckley Elementary, every Friday morning, from 8:45 AM-10:30 AM. Boys Town helps children and their families be more successful at home, school, and in life by providing free services in the home and in the community.

Call 799-7700 X4091 to schedule an appointment.

Our Common Sense Parenting classes began January 23rd. We will have one more session of classes at the end of the school year. If you are interested in registering for the classes, Call 799-7700 X4091 to register.

SBAC testing will begin next month. All 3rd - 5th grade students will participate in SBAC testing.

As testing begins we are anticipating our students to show great academic growth.

Parents can help prepare their children for testing by:

• providing a designated, quiet place to study and complete their homework
  
• bringing your child to school, and on time
• allowing your child to get enough sleep
• providing healthy meals
• And most importantly, encouraging your child to do their best!
